MEMORANDUM OPINION


Before Justices O'Neill, Lang-Miers, and Evans

Opinion by Justice O'Neill

This is an accelerated appeal from the trial court's order terminating appellant Janeth Quinones's parental rights. On October 18, 2013, we notified appellant that her brief in this cause was due on November 6, 2013. We also notified appellant that because this was a parental termination case, no extensions would be granted absent extraordinary circumstances. We expressly cautioned appellant that failure to timely file a brief could result in dismissal of her appeal for want of prosecution. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(a); 42.3; see also In re G.J.O., 05-10-00378-CV, 2011 WL 2207094 (Tex. App.—Dallas 2011, no pet.). To date, appellant has not filed a brief or provided any explanation for her failure to do so.

Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal for want of prosecution.
