IN THE

TENTH COURT OF APPEALS

No. 10-21-00059-CV

IN THE INTEREST OF J.G.W., A CHILD

From the 414th District Court

McLennan County, Texas

Trial Court No. 2016-3037-5

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Appellant, KW, appeals from a final order that was signed on November 19, 2020. KW timely filed a motion for new trial; therefore, her notice of appeal must have been filed within ninety days after the final order was signed, i.e., by February 22, 2021. See TEX. R. APP. P. 26.1(a). Or a motion for extension of time to file notice of appeal must have been filed within fifteen days after the deadline for filing the notice of appeal, i.e., by March 9, 2021. See TEX. R. APP. P. 26.3. KW filed her notice of appeal and a motion for extension of time to file her notice of appeal in this matter on March 17, 2021, which was therefore untimely.

On March 24, 2021, we issued an order in this cause notifying the parties that this appeal may be dismissed within ten days of the date of the order unless a response was filed showing grounds for continuing the appeal. KW responded by filing a “Request to Continue Appeal” in which she complains about numerous delays in the trial court, all post entry of the final order. However, KW’s response does not show grounds for continuing the appeal. This appeal is therefore dismissed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(a).

KW’s motion for extension of time to file her notice of appeal is also dismissed.
