MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Chief Justice Contreras and Justices Benavides and Silva
Memorandum Opinion by Justice Benavides
This matter is before the Court on its own motion. On September 2, 2019, we
abated this cause, pursuant to a notice of bankruptcy. On April 16, 2021, we granted
appellee’s motion to lift abatement, reinstated the case, and notified appellant that
appellant’s brief was now due May 6, 2021. On May 19, 2021, the clerk of the court
notified appellant that, pursuant to Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(a)(1), the appeal was subject to
dismissal for want of prosecution, unless appellant provided reasonable explanation for
his failure to timely file a brief within ten days.
Appellant has neither reasonably explained his failure to file a motion for extension
of time nor filed his brief. Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed for want of prosecution.
See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a), 42.3(b),(c).
GINA M. BENAVIDES
Justice
Delivered and filed on the
15th day of July, 2021.
