Robert H. Shields, Appellant







v.








State of Texas, Appellee















FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF TRAVIS COUNTY, 167TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT




NO. 94-01036, HONORABLE MARY PEARL WILLIAMS, JUDGE PRESIDING 











PER CURIAM





	Because appellant has failed to file a brief, we will dismiss the appeal for want of
prosecution.  See Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b).



	The Clerk of this Court filed the clerk's record in this cause on December 10, 1998,
and the reporter's record on May 3, 1999.  Accordingly, appellant's brief was due on Wednesday,
June 2, 1999.  See id. 38.6(a)(2). By letter dated July 1, 1999, this Court notified the parties that
the appeal was subject to dismissal for want of prosecution unless appellant tendered a motion for
extension of time reasonably explaining the failure to do so by July 12, 1999.  Thus far, appellant
has submitted neither a brief nor a motion for extension of time to file a brief.









	Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution on our own motion. 
Id. 42.3(b).
