On Appeal from the County Court at Law No. 1 Jefferson County, Texas Trial Cause No. 23CCCV0236 __________________________________________________________________

MEMORANDUM OPINION

On July 5, 2023, LaTonya Rechelle Weems filed a notice to appeal a final

judgment in Trial Cause Number 23CCCV0236. But after perfecting her appeal,

Weems failed to file a brief.

On December 8, 2023, the Clerk of the Ninth Court of Appeals notified the

parties that Weems had not filed a brief and advised the parties that her appeal would

be submitted without briefs unless the Court received Weems’ brief and a motion to

extend the deadline for filing the brief by December 18, 2023. We also warned

1 Weems that her appeal could be dismissed for want of prosecution if the Court

submitted her appeal without briefs.

On January 9, 2023, the Clerk notified the parties that on January 30, 2023,

the appeal would be submitted to the Court without briefs and without oral argument.

See Tex. R. App. P. 39.8. Since no brief has been filed in the appeal assigning any

error to a ruling of the trial court, we dismiss Weems’ appeal for want of prosecution.

See id. 38.8(a)(1); id. 42.3(b), 43.2(f).

APPEAL DISMISSED.
