SINIDU NEGASH, Appellant v. CLAUDIA BURNS, Appellee


On Appeal from the County Court at Law No. 4 Collin County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 004-01125-2013

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Before Justices Lang, Stoddart, and Schenck
Opinion by Justice Schenck

Before the Court is appellee's January 26, 2015 motion to dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution. In the motion, appellee specifically contends we should dismiss this appeal because appellant has failed to file a brief as directed by the Court. Our records show that by postcard dated December 2, 2014, we notified appellant the time for filing his brief had expired. We directed appellant to file both his brief and an extension motion within ten days. We cautioned appellant that failure to file a brief and an extension motion would result in the dismissal of this appeal without further notice. To date, appellant has not filed a brief, filed an extension motion, or otherwise corresponded with the Court regarding the status of this appeal.

Accordingly, we grant appellee's January 26, 2015 motion and dismiss this appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a)(1); 42.3(b)(c).
