GEORGE E. DIXON, Appellant v. CARMEN NANCE SANDERS N/K/A CARMEN LEE NANCE GAMBRILL, Appellee


On Appeal from the 405th District Court

Galveston County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. 07CV0656


MEMORANDUM OPINION

Appellee, Carmen Nance Sanders n/k/a Carmen Lee Nance Gambrill, moves to dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution because appellant, George E. Dixon, has failed to timely file a brief. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a) (authorizing dismissal for failure of appellant to file brief). The appellate record was complete September 20, 2012. Appellant's brief was due on October 22, 2012. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.6(a) (governing time to file brief). Over ten days have passed and appellant has not responded to appellee's motion to dismiss. See TEX. R. APP. P. 10.3, 38.8(a)(1).

Accordingly, we grant appellee's motion and dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a), 42.3(b), 43.2(f). We dismiss all other pending motions as moot.

PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Chief Justice Radack and Justices Higley and Brown.
