                                                      MEMORANDUM OPINION

 

            Anthony Wayne White filed his pro se notice of appeal April 19, 2010, from the trial court’s dismissal of his suit as frivolous or malicious.[1]

            The clerk’s record was filed July 12, 2010.  Therefore, the appellant’s brief was due on or before August 11, 2010. 

            When neither a brief nor a motion to extend time for filing the same had been filed by September 10, 2010, we contacted appellant by letter and informed him that, if a brief had not been filed by September 27, 2010, the appeal would be subject to dismissal for want of prosecution.  See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(b), (c).

            No brief has been filed.  Pursuant to Rule 42.3(b) of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure, we dismiss this appeal for want of prosecution.  Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(b).
