Opinion

In the Court of Appeals Second Appellate District of Texas at Fort Worth ___________________________ No. 02-24-00537-CV ___________________________

IN THE ESTATE OF TOM ALBIN LYLES, DECEASED

On Appeal from Probate Court No. 1 Tarrant County, Texas Trial Court No. 2010-PR01022-1-A

Before Kerr, Birdwell, and Bassel, JJ. Per Curiam Memorandum Opinion MEMORANDUM OPINION AND JUDGMENT

Appellant’s brief was due on April 4, 2025, see Tex. R. App. P. 38.6(a), but no

brief was filed. On April 22, 2025, we notified Appellant that we could dismiss her

appeal for want of prosecution unless, by May 21, 2025, she filed a brief and an

accompanying motion reasonably explaining the brief’s untimeliness. See Tex. R. App.

P. 10.5(b), 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b). That date has passed, and we have not received a

response.

Because Appellant has failed to file a brief, we dismiss the appeal for want of

prosecution. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b), 43.2(f). Appellant must pay all

costs of this appeal.

Delivered: June 12, 2025
