APPEAL FROM THE 349TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT HOUSTON COUNTY, TEXAS
MEMORANDUM OPINION
PER CURIAM
This appeal is being dismissed for want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(b). Appellant, Raul Trevino, perfected his appeal on August 11, 2011. The clerk's record was filed on October 11, 2011, making Appellant's brief due on or before December 12, 2011. Appellant filed two motions for extension of time to file his brief. Both motions were granted, making Appellant's brief due on February 8, 2011. Appellant was notified on January 4, 2012, that no further extensions would be granted and that failure to file his brief by the extended deadline would result in the case being presented to the court for dismissal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8.
The February 8, 2012 deadline for filing Appellant's brief has passed, and Appellant has not filed a brief. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a)(1), 42.3.(b). Panel consisted of Worthen, C.J., Griffith, J., and Hoyle, J.
