DOUGLAS JABOT,
APPELLANT
vs.
ED SARNOSKY,
APPELLEE
FROM THE COUNTY COURT AT LAW NO. 1 OF TRAVIS COUNTY
NO. 213,612, HONORABLE J. DAVID PHILLIPS, JUDGE PRESIDING
PER CURIAM
This is a dismissal for want of prosecution.
The trial court rendered judgment in the underlying cause on October 7, 1992. On January 20, 1993, appellant filed in this Court a motion for extension of time to file affidavit in lieu of bond for costs on appeal. The record in the above cause was due to be filed in this Court on February 4, 1993. Tex. R. App. P. Ann. 54(a). A motion for extension of time was due no later than February 19, 1993. Tex. R. App. P. Ann. 54(c). Appellant filed neither the transcript or statement of facts nor a motion for extension of time showing a reasonable explanation for the need for an extension.
If the appellant fails to file either the transcript or the statement of facts within the prescribed time, the appellate court may dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution. Rule 54(a). Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal for want of prosecution. See id.; Veale v. Rose, 688 S.W.2d 600 (Tex. App.--Corpus Christi 1984, writ ref'd n.r.e.).
