IN THE INTEREST OF C.M., A CHILD
On Appeal from the 231st District Court
Tarrant County, Texas
Trial Court No. 231-593355-16
Before Wallach, J.; Sudderth, C.J.; and Walker, J.
Per Curiam Memorandum Opinion
MEMORANDUM OPINION AND JUDGMENT
On June 3, 2021, we notified appellant that her 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).
