CHARLES KENDRICK, Appellant v. C. WETHERELL - POLUNSKY UNIT, Appellee
On Appeal from the 411th District Court Polk County, Texas
Trial Cause No. CIV33394
MEMORANDUM OPINION
On January 8, 2020, the trial court signed an order dismissing appellant's suit as frivolous. See Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code Ann. § 14.003(b)(4). Appellant filed a notice of appeal but failed to file a brief. On April 16, 2020, we notified the parties that the appellant's brief was past due and warned that if the brief and a motion for extension of time were not filed, the case would be submitted to the Court on the record alone. The Clerk also notified the parties that submission without briefs could result in dismissal of the appeal for want of prosecution. On May 4, 2020, we notified the parties that the appeal would be submitted to the Court on the record alone on May 25, 2020.
The Clerk has provided notice to the appellant that the appeal could be dismissed for want of prosecution for failure to comply with the Court's direction. Appellant has failed to comply with the Court's instruction to prosecute the appeal. Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed for want of prosecution. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3.
APPEAL DISMISSED.
