MEMORANDUM OPINION

The trial court signed a final decree of divorce on December 15, 2015.

Rosemarie Joyal filed a notice of appeal. The brief of the appellant was due to be

filed on or before July 20, 2016, but Joyal did not file a brief. On July 21, 2016, we

notified the parties that the brief had not been filed and warned the appellant that

her failure to file a brief could result in a dismissal of the appeal for want of

prosecution. On August 12, 2016, we notified the parties that the appeal would be

1 submitted to the Court 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.
