M E M O R A N D U M   O P I N I O N

This is an appeal from a judgment signed December 10, 2007.  The clerk=s record was filed on February 13, 2008, and the reporter=s record was filed March 13, 2008.  Appellant=s brief was due April 14, 2008, but was not filed.  On May 1, 2008, this court ordered appellant, Brandy Ingram, to file her brief on or before May 30, 2008, or face dismissal of the appeal.  Appellant submitted a brief on June 9, 2008.  The brief was received only, and not filed, because it was submitted after the deadline and it failed to comply with the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure.  The brief was returned for correction on June 9, 2008, to be corrected and returned within 10 days.  See Tex. R. App. P. 9.4(i).  No brief or motion for extension of time have been filed.


On July 10, 2008, this Court issued an order again stating that unless appellant submitted her brief, together with a motion reasonably explaining why the brief was late, on or before August 1, 2008, the Court would dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution.  See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(b).  Appellant filed no response.

Accordingly, the appeal is ordered dismissed.
