MEMORANDUM OPINION

The trial court signed a final judgment on January 11, 2018. Norman Reed

filed a notice of appeal but failed to file a brief. On August 7, 2018, we granted an

extension of time to file the brief of the appellant with the notation that it was a final

extension. On September 11, 2018, we notified the parties that the brief had not been

filed and that the appeal would be submitted without briefs unless we received the

brief and motion for extension within ten days. On September 24, 2018, we notified

1 the parties that the appeal would be submitted to the Court on October 15, 2018,

without briefs and without oral argument. See Tex. R. App. P. 39.8.

In the absence of a brief assigning error for appellate review, we dismiss the

appeal for want of prosecution. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(a)(1); Tex. R. App. P.

42.3(b).

APPEAL DISMISSED.
