FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF TRAVIS COUNTY, 250TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT

This is a dismissal for want of prosecution.

The transcript and statement of facts in the above cause were due to be filed in this Court on April 8, 1991. Tex. R. App. P. Ann. 54(a) (Pamph. 1991). Appellants filed a motion for extension of time to file the record in this cause on April 4, 1991. By virtue of the Court granting the extension, the record was due to be filed in this Court on or before June 5, 1991. See Tex. R. App. P. Ann. 54(c) (Pamph. 1991).

If an appellant fails to file either the transcript or the statement of facts within the prescribed time, the appellate court may dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution. Tex. R. App. P. Ann. 54(a) (Pamph. 1991). To date, appellants have filed neither a transcript nor a statement of facts.

Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution. See Tex. R. App. P. Ann. 54(a), (c) (Pamph. 1991); Veale v. Rose, 688 S.W.2d 600 (Tex. App. 1984, writ ref'd n.r.e.).
