MEMORANDUM OPINION
From the 45th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas
Trial Court No. 2016-CI-06386
Honorable Peter Sakai, Judge Presiding PER CURIAM Sitting: Karen Angelini, Justice Marialyn Barnard, Justice Rebeca C. Martinez, Justice DISMISSED FOR WANT OF PROSECUTION
Pursuant to our December 14, 2016 order, appellant's brief was originally due on January 13, 2017. Appellant failed to file his brief or a motion for extension of time by the due date. Therefore, on January 20, 2017, we ordered appellant to file, on or before February 13, 2017, his appellant's brief and a written response reasonably explaining (1) his failure to timely file the brief and (2) why appellees were not significantly injured by appellant's failure to timely file a brief. We warned that if appellant failed to file a brief and the written response by the date ordered, we would dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution. Appellant failed to respond to our order. Therefore, we dismiss this appeal for want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a). Costs of appeal are taxed against appellant.
