GLENN JOHNSON, Appellant v. WILLIAM VILLATORO, Appellee
On Appeal from the County Civil Court at Law No. 2 Harris County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 1105737
ORDER
On January 9, 2019, appellant filed a brief that does not comply with the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure. The brief fails to comply with Rule 38.1(g) because the Statement of Facts is not supported by record references. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.1(g). The brief fails to comply with Rule 38.1(i) because the brief must contain, under an appropriate heading, a clear and concise argument for the contentions made with appropriate citations to authorities and to the record. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.1(i).
Accordingly, we STRIKE appellant's brief. Appellant is ordered to file a brief that complies with the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure by January 29, 2019.
If appellant files another brief that does not comply with Rule 38, the Court may strike the brief, prohibit appellant from filing another, and proceed as if appellant had failed to file a brief. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.9(a). If appellant fails to timely file a brief in accordance with Rule 38, the appeal may be dismissed for want of prosecution or the trial court's judgment affirmed based on appellee's brief. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(a)(1), (3).
On December 13, 2018, appellant filed a motion to extend time to file a brief. The motion is dismissed as moot.
