Melinda Henry, Appellant v. Carlos Cortez, Appellee
M E M O R A N D U M O P I N I O N
Appellant Melinda Henry filed a notice of appeal on May 4, 2011. This Court has received from the district clerk of Williamson County a copy of the trial court's order granting Henry's motion for new trial on May 18, 2011. On August 31, 2011, the Clerk of this Court sent notice to Henry requesting an explanation in writing of why her appeal should not be dismissed for want of jurisdiction and notifying her that her appeal would be dismissed for want of jurisdiction if she did not respond to this Court by September 12, 2011. To date, Henry has not responded to this Court's notice. We dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction. See Tex.R.App. P. 42.3(a).
