PETER OBASOGIE, Appellant v. AMTEX AUTO INSURANCE COMPANY, Appellee


On Appeal from the 127th District Court Harris County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 2017-18506

ORDER

On August 1, 2017, appellant filed a brief that is not in compliance with the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure. The brief fails generally to comply with the rules. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.1(b), (c), (e), (f), (i), and (k).

Accordingly, we order appellant's brief filed August 1, 2017, stricken. Appellant is ordered to file a brief that complies with the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure within thirty (30) days of the date of this order. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.1(b), (c), (e), (f), (i), and (k).

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).

PER CURIAM Panel consists of Justices Christopher, Brown, and Wise. (J. Christopher would not strike).
