Ex Parte Stephen POLASEK, Appellant

From the 379th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2015CR8647 Honorable Andrew Carruthers, Judge Presiding

ORDER

Appellant’s brief was due to be filed on or before October 19, 2015; however, it has not yet been filed. Because no brief has been filed, it is ORDERED appellant show cause in writing within ten days from the date of this order why this appeal should not be dismissed for want of prosecution. TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a).

Response should include a reasonable explanation for failure to timely file the brief and should demonstrate affirmative steps taken to remedy the deficiency. If appellant intends for the response to act as a motion for extension of time, it must comply with Rule 10.5 of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure and the Fourth Court of Appeals’ local rules. If appellant no longer wishes to pursue this appeal, the response should include a motion to dismiss.

If this Court does not receive an adequate response within ten days, the appeal will be dismissed for want of prosecution. TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a)(1).
