                                MEMORANDUM OPINION[1]

 

                                              ------------


In this bond forfeiture case, Appellant Jim Shaw attempts to appeal from the trial court=s judgment signed October 16, 2009.[2]  Because Appellant timely filed a motion for new trial, his notice of appeal was due January 14, 2010, but he did not file his notice of appeal until February 3, 2010, which was untimely.[3]

On February 10, 2010, we notified Appellant that his appeal was subject to dismissal for want of jurisdiction unless, by February 22, 2010, he filed a response showing grounds for continuing the appeal.[4]  No response has been filed.  Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal for want of jurisdiction.[5]
