On August 8, 2017, appellant filed a brief that is not in compliance with the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure.. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.1(i).

Accordingly, we strike appellant's brief filed August 8, 2017, and order appellant 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.

If appellant files another brief that does not comply with Rule 38, the court may strike the brief again, prohibit appellant from filing another, and proceed as if appellant had failed to file a brief.
