Court of Appeals For The

First District of Texas ———————————— NO. 01-25-00884-CV ——————————— CHRISTINA KELLER, Appellant V. 22HUNDRED APARTMENTS LTD, Appellee

On Appeal from the County Civil Court at Law No. 2 Harris County, Texas Trial Court Case No. 1257796

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Appellant Christina Keller filed her notice of appeal on October 21, 2025. See

TEX. R. APP. P. 26.1. The clerk’s record was timely filed on November 21, 2025,

but the reporter’s record was not. See TEX. R. APP. P. 4.1(a), 35.1. The same day,

the Clerk of this Court notified appellant that she had not requested the reporter’s record or paid for it and warned the appeal could be decided without the reporter’s

record absent proof of payment, arrangements with the reporter, or an applicable

exemption. See TEX. R. APP. P. 37.3(c). Appellant provided none. Accordingly, the

Court ordered that it would consider only issues not requiring a reporter’s record and

ordered appellant to file her brief in 30 days. See id 37.3(c), 38.6(a).

Appellant did not file her brief by the deadline. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a)

(governing failure of appellant to file brief). We warned appellant that we would

dismiss the appeal absent a reasonable explanation for the failure to file a brief. See

id. Appellant did not respond as we requested. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(b) (allowing

involuntary dismissal of case).

Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal in accordance with Texas Rule of

Appellate Procedure 42.3(b)–(c). We dismiss any pending motions as moot.

PER CURIAM Panel consists of Chief Justice Adams and Justices Guerra and Guiney.
