CHARLES RAYMOND SPRAGUE, Appellant v. JANE DOE, Appellee
On Appeal from the 141st District Court Tarrant County, Texas
Trial Court No. 141-285559-16 Before Sudderth, C.J.; Gabriel and Kerr, JJ.
Memorandum Opinion
MEMORANDUM OPINION AND JUDGMENT
Appellant's brief was originally due on September 26, 2019. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.6(a). After this court granted two extensions of time for appellant to file the brief, on December 11, 2019, we notified him that because his brief had not been filed as the appellate rules require, we could dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution unless, within ten days, he filed with the court an appellant's brief and an accompanying motion reasonably explaining the brief's untimely filing and why an extension was needed. See Tex. R. App. P. 10.5(b), 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b). We have received no response.
Because appellant has failed to file a brief even after we afforded an opportunity to explain the failure, we dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b), 43.2(f).
