Andrea PEREZ, Appellant

v.

Santos SPARKMAN, Appellee

From the County Court, Guadalupe County, Texas Trial Court No. 2018-CV-0246 Honorable Robin V. Dwyer, Judge Presiding

PER CURIAM

Sitting: Sandee Bryan Marion, Chief Justice Beth Watkins, Justice Liza A. Rodriguez, Justice

Delivered and Filed: February 27, 2019

DISMISSED FOR WANT OF PROSECUTION

Appellant Andrea Perez filed a pro se notice of appeal from a judgment of eviction signed

on August 16, 2018. Appellant’s brief was originally due January 14, 2019. Neither the brief nor

a motion for extension of time was filed. On January 24, 2019, we ordered appellant to file, not

later than February 4, 2019, her appellant’s brief and a written response reasonably explaining her

failure to timely file the brief. We advised appellant that if she failed to file a brief and the written

response by the date ordered, we would dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution. See TEX. R.

APP. P. 38.8(a). Appellant has not filed a brief or the written response as ordered by this court. 04-18-00632-CV

We therefore order this appeal dismissed for want of prosecution. We further order that no

costs be assessed against appellant because she is indigent.
