       Appellant’s brief was filed on February 13, 2012. On March 21, 2012, appellee
filed a motion to strike. The Court agrees that appellant has not properly presented this
cause in his brief on file and grants the motion.

       Appellant failed to substantially comply with Rule 38 of the Texas Rules of
Appellate procedure. In particular, appellant has failed to provide adequate citations to
the record and to authority. Tex. R. App. P. 38.1(f), (h).
       Accordingly, pursuant to Rule 38.9(b), the court orders appellant to rebrief. See
Tex. R. App. P. 38.9(b). Appellant’s amended brief is due May 7, 2012, and appellee’s
responsive brief shall be due 30 days after appellant’s revised brief is filed.
