MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Justices Smith, Miskel, and Breedlove Opinion by Justice Smith On April 9, 2024, we sent a letter to the parties questioning our jurisdiction
because it appears appellant is appealing from an agreed judgment. We explained
that absent an allegation and proof of fraud, collusion, or misrepresentation, such a
judgment cannot be appealed. We directed appellant to file a letter brief addressing
our jurisdictional concern no later than April 19, 2024. We expressly cautioned
appellant that failure to do so might result in the dismissal of the appeal without
further notice. To date, appellant has not filed a letter brief nor further corresponded
with the Court regarding the status of this appeal. Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(b), (c).
