IN THE INTEREST OF M.S., A CHILD
On Appeal from the 367th District Court Denton County, Texas Trial Court No. 22-6164-367
Before Birdwell, Bassel, and Womack, JJ. Per Curiam Memorandum Opinion MEMORANDUM OPINION AND JUDGMENT
On February 26, 2024, we notified appellant that his brief had not been filed as
the appellate rules require. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.6(a). We stated that we could
dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution unless, within ten days, appellant filed with
the court an appellant’s brief and an accompanying motion reasonably explaining the
brief’s untimely filing and why an extension was needed. See Tex. R. App. P. 10.5(b),
38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b). We have received no response.
Because appellant has failed to file a brief even after we afforded an
opportunity to explain the initial failure, 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.
Per Curiam
Delivered: March 21, 2024
