Court of Appeals
Seventh District of Texas at Amarillo
No. 07-16-00254-CV
IN THE INTEREST OF C.A.M., A CHILD
On Appeal from the 64th District Court
Swisher County, Texas
Trial Court No. A-11950-12-11, Honorable Robert W. Kinkaid, Jr., Presiding
December 21, 2016
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before CAMPBELL and HANCOCK and PIRTLE, JJ.
Appellant, A.M., filed a notice of appeal from an order in a suit to modify the
parent-child relationship. The clerk’s record was filed on August 30, 2016, and the
reporter’s record was filed on September 8, 2016. Appellant’s brief was, therefore, due
on October 10, 2016, but was not filed. This Court later granted appellant four
extensions to file his brief. By letter dated December 2, 2016, the Clerk of this Court
notified appellant that failure to file his brief on or before December 15, 2016, would
result in dismissal of the appeal for want of prosecution without further notice. See TEX.
R. APP. P. 38.8(a)(1). To date, appellant has not filed a brief or responded to the Clerk’s
letter.
Accordingly, we now dismiss this appeal for want of prosecution and failure to
comply with a notice from the Clerk of this Court requiring action within a specified time.
See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a)(1); 42.3(b), (c).
