RYAN STANCU, Appellant

SOUTHERN METHODIST UNIVERSITY, Appellee

On Appeal from the 101st Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. DC-20-14134

ORDER

Although the reporter’s record has not been filed, appellant has filed his brief on the merits. Accordingly, we ORDER the appeal be submitted without the reporter’s record. See TEX. R. APP. P. 37.3(c).

Appellant’s brief is deficient in that it fails to include: (1) a table of contents with references to the pages of the brief; (2) an index of authorities arranged alphabetically and indicating the pages of the brief where the authorities are cited; (3) issues presented for review; (4) a statement of facts supported by record references; and (5) clear and concise argument for the contentions made, with appropriate citations to the record. See id. 38.1(b), (c), (f), (g) & (i). Accordingly appellant shall file an amended brief correcting the noted deficiencies within ten days of the date of this order. Failure to file an amended brief will result in the appeal being submitted with the deficient brief.
