FROM COUNTY COURT AT LAW NO. 1 OF TARRANT COUNTY

MEMORANDUM OPINION (footnote: 1) AND JUDGMENT

----------

On May 14, 2004, we notified appellant that his brief had not been filed as required by rule 38.6(a).   See Tex. R. App . P. 38.6(a).  We stated we would dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution unless appellant or any party desiring to continue this appeal filed with the court within ten days a response showing grounds for continuing the appeal.  We have not received any response.

Because appellant’s brief has not been filed and appellant has not reasonably explained his failure to file a brief, we dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution.   See T EX . R. A PP . P. 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b), 43.2(f).
