Opinion

Fourth Court of Appeals San Antonio, Texas MEMORANDUM OPINION No. 04-24-00722-CV

Jessica RIVERA, et al., Appellants

v.

BALCONES LOFTS, LTD, Appellee

From the County Court at Law No. 3, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2024CV07525 Honorable David J. Rodriguez, Judge Presiding

Sitting: Rebeca C. Martinez, Chief Justice H. Todd McCray, Justice Velia J. Meza, Justice

Delivered and Filed: June 11, 2025

DISMISSED

This is an appeal from a judgment in an eviction case. The trial court entered judgment for

the appellee after the appellant failed to appear.

The appellant’s brief was due on November 27, 2024. On February 26, 2025, the clerk of

this court issued a notice informing the appellant that her brief had not been filed and directing the

appellant to respond to the notice by March 10, 2025. When there was no response, this court

issued an order in which we directed the appellant to file her brief along with a written response

reasonably explaining her failure to timely file a brief and why the appellee was not significantly 04-24-00722-CV

injured by the appellant’s failure to timely file a brief. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(a)(1). We noted

that, if the appellant failed to timely file a brief and a written response, we would dismiss the appeal

for want of prosecution or for failure to comply with a court order or a requirement of the rules of

appellate procedure. The response was due on April 28, 2025. Nevertheless, appellant has failed

to respond.

Accordingly, we DISMISS this appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 37.3(b), 42.3(b), (c).
