Edgardo BÁEZ and the Báez Law Firm, P.C., Appellants v. Gilberto VILLEGAS, Appellee
From the 37th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas
Trial Court No. 2016CI02694
Honorable David A. Canales, Judge Presiding
ORDER
On March 27, 2018, after Appellants failed to comply with our March 5, 2018 order regarding the reporter's record, we advised Appellants that their brief was due on April 16, 2018, and this court would only "consider and decide those issues or points [raised in Appellants' brief] that do not require a reporter's record for a decision." See id. R. 37.3(c).
To date, Appellants have not filed their brief or a motion for extension of time to file it.
We ORDER Appellants to show cause in writing within TEN DAYS of the date of this order why this appeal should not be dismissed for want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a), 42.3(b), (c); Elizondo v. City of San Antonio, 975 S.W.2d 61, 63 (Tex. App.—San Antonio 1998, no pet.). Appellants' written response must include a reasonable explanation for Appellants' failure to timely file the brief. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a).
If Appellants fail to show cause as ordered, this appeal will be dismissed without further notice. See id. R. 42.3(b), (c); Elizondo, 975 S.W.2d at 63.
