NUMBER 13-18-00452-CV COURT OF APPEALS THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS CORPUS CHRISTI - EDINBURG ____________________________________________________________ IN THE INTEREST OF R. A. K. ____________________________________________________________ On Appeal from the 275th District Court of Hidalgo County Texas. ____________________________________________________________ MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Chief Justice Valdez and Justices Longoria and Hinojosa Memorandum Opinion by Chief Justice Valdez Appellant, Reyna Lee, attempted to perfect an appeal from an order on emergency motion to extend temporary restraining order and order denying respondent’s plea to the jurisdiction signed on August 16, 2018, in cause no. F-4311-18-E. Upon review of the documents before the Court, it appeared that the order from which this appeal was taken was not a final, appealable order. On August 20, 2018, the Clerk of this Court notified appellant of this defect so that steps could be taken to correct the defect, if it could be done. See TEX. R. APP. P. 37.1, 42.3. Appellant was advised that, if the defect was not corrected within ten days from the date of receipt of the notice, the appeal would be dismissed for want of jurisdiction. Appellant failed to respond to the Court’s notice.

In terms of appellate jurisdiction, appellate courts only have jurisdiction to review final judgments and certain interlocutory orders identified by statute. Lehmann v. Har- Con Corp., 39 S.W.3d 191, 195 (Tex. 2001).

The Court, having considered the documents on file and appellant's failure to correct the defect in this matter, is of the opinion that the appeal should be dismissed for want of jurisdiction. Accordingly, the appeal is DISMISSED FOR WANT OF JURISDICTION. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(a),(c).
