RONA KEMP, Appellant v. RENFRED KEMP, Appellee


On Appeal from the 247th District Court Harris County, Texas
Trial Court Case No. 2016-14829

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Appellant, Rona Kemp, proceeding pro se, has failed to timely file her appellate brief. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.6(a), (d), 38.8(a)(1). After the clerk's record was filed on May 19, 2017, the Clerk of this Court notified appellant that appellant's brief was due within thirty days of that notice if there was no reporter's record or if it had already been filed. See id. 38.6(a)(1). However, on May 30, 2017, the Clerk's notice to appellant was returned with the following marked on the certified mail envelope: "RETURN TO SENDER[,] INSUFFICIENT ADDRESS[,] UNABLE TO FORWARD[,] RETURN TO SENDER."

On August 8, 2017, the Clerk of this Court notified appellant that her appeal was subject to dismissal for failure to timely file her appellate brief or a current mailing address and requested a response within 10 days of that notice. See id. 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b), (c). Appellant neither timely filed her brief nor provided the Clerk of this Court with any other address. See id. 9.1(b) ("A party not represented by counsel must sign any document . . . and give the party's mailing address, telephone number, fax number, if any, and email address."); 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(c).

Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution for failure to timely file a brief. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b), (c).

PER CURIAM Panel consists of Chief Justice Radack and Justices Keyes and Caughey.
