MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Chief Justice Burns, Justice Molberg, and Justice Nowell
Opinion by Chief Justice Burns
Before the Court is appellee's February 26, 2020 motion to dismiss this appeal for want of prosecution. Our record shows appellant's brief in this case is overdue. By order dated January 24, 2020, we granted appellant's request for an extension of time to file his brief and ordered appellant's brief to be filed by February 24, 2020. By postcard dated March 3, 2020, we notified appellant his brief was overdue. We directed appellant to file a brief and an extension motion within ten days. We cautioned appellant that failure to do so might result in the dismissal of this appeal without further notice. To date, appellant has not filed a brief, filed an extension motion, or otherwise corresponded with the Court regarding the status of this appeal.
Accordingly, we GRANT appellee's motion and dismiss this appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a)(1); 42.3(b), (c).
