Steve Ramon, Jr. v. Colonial County Mutual Insurance Company as Subrogee of Cynthia St. Julian
Citation: Not availableDocket: 01-16-00873-CV
Court: Court of Appeals of Texas; May 2, 2017; Texas; State Appellate Court
Original Court Document: View Document
A default judgment against Steve Ramon, Jr. was signed on June 5, 2012. Ramon attempted to appeal this judgment but filed his notice of appeal on October 27, 2016, which was beyond the allowable time frame. Under Texas law, a notice of appeal must be filed within thirty days of the judgment, extendable to ninety days if specific motions are filed. No such motions were filed by Ramon to extend the deadline. The Court of Appeals for the First District of Texas determined it lacked jurisdiction over the appeal due to the untimely notice. Additionally, Ramon did not respond to a notice from the court regarding the jurisdiction issue, and his appeal was dismissed for want of jurisdiction. All pending motions were dismissed as moot. The panel included Chief Justice Radack and Justices Brown and Lloyd.
