This appeal was abated April 25, 2016 due to bankruptcy. Our independent review of the

By letter dated March 8, 2019, we informed the parties the appeal would be dismissed for want of prosecution unless any party gave cause as to why it should not be dismissed. In response, appellant filed a motion for additional time.

We GRANT the motion and ORDER appellant to file no later than April 15, 2019, a letter brief explaining why the appeal should not be dismissed for want of prosecution. We caution appellant that failure to comply may result in dismissal without further notice. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(b),(c).
