J.W., Appellant

L.W., Appellee
On Appeal from the 367th District Court
Denton County, Texas
Trial Court No. 20-5494-367
Before Womack, Wallach, and Walker, JJ.
Per Curiam Memorandum Opinion
MEMORANDUM OPINION AND JUDGMENT
On March 5, 2021, we notified Appellant that his brief had not been filed as
the appellate rules require. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.6(a). We stated that we could
dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution unless, within ten days, Appellant filed
with the court an appellant’s brief and an accompanying motion reasonably explaining
the brief’s untimely filing and why an extension was needed. See Tex. R. App. P.
10.5(b), 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b). We have received no response.
Because Appellant has failed to file a brief even after we afforded an
opportunity to explain the initial failure, we dismiss the appeal for want of
prosecution. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b), 43.2(f).
Appellant must pay all costs of this appeal.
