BILLY KALLUS, Appellant v. AUCTION.COM, Appellee
On Appeal from the 270th District Court
Harris County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 2011-37654
ORDER
On November 26, 2013, appellant filed a brief that is not in compliance with the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure. The brief fails to comply with the rules. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.1(a) and (i). In particular, appellant has failed to provide adequate citations to the record. Tex. R. App. P. 38.1(i).
Accordingly, we order appellant's brief filed November 26, 2013 stricken. Appellant is ordered to file a brief that complies with the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure within ten (10) days of the date of this order. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.1.
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). Pursuant to Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 38.8(a), where an appellant has failed to file a brief, we may dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution. If appellant fails to timely file a brief in accordance with Rule 38, the appeal will be dismissed for want of prosecution. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(a)(1).
Submission of the case on the briefs March 20, 2014, is postponed pending appellant's filing of a brief that complies with Rule 38. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.9(b).
