On Appeal from the 268th District Court
Fort Bend County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 05-DCV-142846
MEMORANDUM OPINION
On February 17, 2011, the Court granted the parties’ motions for partial dismissal[1] and ordered that the remaining appellants[2] file a brief. The remaining appellants have failed to timely file a brief. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(a) (failure of appellant to file brief). After being notified that this appeal was subject to dismissal, appellants did not adequately respond. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(b) (allowing involuntary dismissal of case).
We dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution for failure to timely file a brief.
We dismiss any pending motions as moot.
