FROM THE 47 TH  DISTRICT COURT OF RANDALL COUNTY;

NO. 48,249-A; HON. DAVID L. GLEASON, PRESIDING

_______________________________

Before QUINN,  REAVIS, and JOHNSON, JJ.

The brief of appellant, Rebecca Vaughn, was due on October 19, 2001.  It was not filed by that deadline.  This circumstance was made known to her by letter from this court dated October 26, 2001.  Furthermore, in that same letter, we 1) directed her to explain, by November 5, 2001, why the brief was not so filed and 2) told her that her failure to so respond could result in the dismissal of the appeal for want of prosecution.  The fifth of November, 2001, passed without appellant responding to our letter of October 26 th , filing an appellant’s brief, or moving for an extension of time to file such a brief.    

Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution pursuant  to Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure 38.8(a)(1) and 42.3(b) and (c).
