First National Bank of Dona Ana County, N.M., 892 S.W.2d 237, 238 (Tex.App.--El Paso 1995, no writ)(applying former TEX.R.APP.P. 40(a)(1)). The notice of appeal must be filed within 30 days after the judgment is signed or within 90 days if any party timely files a motion for new trial. TEX.R.APP.P. 26.1(a)(1). The motion for new trial is due to be filed within thirty days after the judgment is signed. TEX.R.CIV.P. 329b(a). The final judgment was signed by the trial court on February 20, 2013 and Appellant did not file a motion for new trial. Therefore, Appellant’s notice of appeal was due to be filed no later than March 22, 2013. By letter dated August 29, 2013, the Court notified Appellant that her notice of appeal was untimely and gave Appellant notice of our intent to dismiss this appeal unless she could establish any ground for continuing the appeal within ten days.
