This appeal was dismissed on November 14, 2017 for want of prosecution because appellant failed to timely file a brief. The deadline for filing a motion for rehearing was November 29, 2017. See TEX. R. APP. P. 49.1 (“A motion for rehearing may be filed within 15 days after the court of appeals’ judgment or order is rendered.”). No timely motion for an extension of time was filed. See TEX. R.
