CLARENCE DEE JOHNSON, Appellant

V.

CHARMION MILLIGAN, Appellee

On Appeal from the 257th District Court

Harris County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. 2007-01535

M E M O R A N D U M   O P I N I O N

This is an attempted appeal from an order signed March 17, 2008.  The clerk=s record was filed on April 16, 2008.  The record before this court contains no appealable order.  The validity of a contempt judgment is not appealable and can be attacked only collaterally by writ of habeas corpus.  See Ex parte Williams, 690 S.W.2d 243, 243 n. 1 (Tex. 1985).  See also McCoy v. McCoy, 908 S.W.2d 42 (Tex. App. B Houston [1st Dist.] 1995, no pet.).

On April 22, 2008, notification was transmitted to the parties of this court=s intention to dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction unless appellant filed a response demonstrating grounds for continuing the appeal on or before May 8, 2008.  See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(a).

Appellant filed no response.  Accordingly, the appeal is ordered dismissed.
