STEVEN J. STRINGFELLOW, Appellant v. TEXAS DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC SAFETY, Appellee
On Appeal from the County Civil Court at Law No. 3 Harris County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 1213018.
Before Brister, Chief Justice and Field and Farris, Justices.
ORDER
Farris, Justice.
On August 6, 2024, 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 by omitting the requirements in Rule 38.1. See Tex.R.App.P. 38.1(b) (table of contents); (c) (index of authorities); (d) (concise statement of the case); (e) (statement regarding oral argument); (f) (issues presented); (g) (statement of facts); (h) (summary of the argument); (i) (argument); (j) (prayer for relief); and (k) (appendix).
Accordingly, we strike appellant's brief filed August 6, 2024. Appellant is ordered to file a brief that complies with the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure within twenty (20) days of the date of this order. See Tex.R.App.P. 38.1.
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.
It is so ORDERED.
