Frank HERRERA, Jr., Appellant v. TEXAS STATE BOARD OF PLUMBING EXAMINERS, Appellee


From the 45th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2013-CI-18829
Honorable Dick Alcala, Judge Presiding

ORDER

On September 3, 2014, this court received appellant's brief. The brief violates Rule 38 of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure in that it cites no authority, does not contain an index of authorities, contains no record citations, and does not contain proof of service. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.1(c), (i), (k); id. R. 9.5(d)-(e). In addition, the brief does not contain a certificate of compliance. See id. R. 9.4(i)(3). While substantial compliance with Rule 38 is sufficient, this court may order a party to amend, supplement, or redraw a brief if it flagrantly violates Rule 38. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.9(a). We conclude that the formal defects described above constitute flagrant violations of Rule 38.

It is therefore ORDERED that appellant file an amended brief within twenty days from the date of this order. If the amended brief does not correct the violations, we may strike the brief and prohibit appellant from filing another. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.9(a); see also id. R. 38.8(a)(1).
