Fourth Court of Appeals
San Antonio, Texas
MEMORANDUM OPINION
No. 04-16-00616-CV
Zaira CABRAL,
Appellant
v.
Mario G. HERNANDEZ,
Appellee
From the 224th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas
Trial Court No. 2012-CI-19205
Honorable Larry Noll, Judge Presiding
PER CURIAM
Sitting: Rebeca C. Martinez, Justice
Patricia O. Alvarez, Justice
Luz Elena D. Chapa, Justice
Delivered and Filed: April 26, 2017
DISMISSED FOR WANT OF PROSECUTION
The clerk’s record was filed on November 1, 2016. Because the trial court sustained the
court reporter’s contest to appellant’s affidavit of inability to pay costs of appeal, we ordered
appellant to either provide proof that the court reporter’s fee had been paid, or to file the appellant’s
brief. See TEX. R. APP. P. 37.3(c). Appellant’s brief was therefore due on March 20, 2017. On
March 24, 2017, we ordered appellant to file, on or before April 11, 2017, a written response
explaining why this appeal should not be dismissed for want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P.
38.8(a); see also TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(c) (allowing involuntary dismissal if appellant has failed to
04-16-00616-CV
comply with a court order). Appellant failed to respond to our order. We therefore dismiss this
appeal for want of prosecution.
