Karen Angelini, Justice
Marialyn Barnard, Justice
Delivered and Filed: May 30, 2018
DISMISSED FOR WANT OF PROSECUTION
This is an accelerated appeal of an order terminating appellant’s parental rights. 1
Appellant’s brief was originally due to be filed on March 13, 2018. By order dated April 4, 2018,
this court granted appellant’s motion requesting an extension of time to file the brief to April 23,
2018. The order stated further requests for extensions of time would be disfavored. The brief has
not been filed.
On May 2, 2018, this court ordered appellant to show cause in writing by May 17, 2018
why this appeal should not be dismissed for want of prosecution. Appellant did not respond to the
court’s order. Because appellant has failed to timely file a brief, this appeal is dismissed for want
of prosecution. TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a).
