FRIDAY, P.C., FRANK BAUER AS AN

AN INDIVIDUAL,

APPELLEES §                      HOPKINS COUNTY, TEXAS

MEMORANDUM OPINION

PER CURIAM

            This appeal is being dismissed for want of jurisdiction pursuant to Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 42.3(a).  The judgment was signed October 31, 2007 in the 62nd Judicial District Court of Hopkins County, Texas.  Appellants filed separate notices of appeal designating this court as the court of appeals having jurisdiction of the appeal.  However, Hopkins County is not included in this court's district.  See Tex. Gov't Code Ann. § 22.201(m) (Vernon Supp. 2007).

            On April 4, 2008, this court notified Appellants pursuant to Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure 37.1 and 44.3 that their notices of appeal incorrectly identified the court of appeals having jurisdiction of the appeal and it informed them that the appeal would be dismissed on or before April 14, 2008 unless Appellants filed a notice of appeal showing this court's jurisdiction.  The deadline for responding to this court's notice has expired, and Appellants have not shown this court's jurisdiction.  Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed for want of jurisdiction.  See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(a).

Opinion delivered April 23, 2008.

Panel consisted of Worthen, C.J., Griffith, J., and Hoyle, J.
