PER CURIAM

Sitting: Rebeca C. Martinez, Chief Justice Liza A. Rodriguez, Justice Lori I. Valenzuela, Justice

Delivered and Filed: February 1, 2023

DISMISSED FOR WANT OF PROSECUTION

Appellant’s brief was originally due on October 28, 2022. Appellant failed to file her brief

or a motion for extension of time. We issued an order informing appellant that her brief was

overdue and directing her to file her brief on or before January 19, 2023. We warned appellant that

if her brief was not filed by January 19, 2023, this appeal would be dismissed for want of

prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a)(1) (allowing appellate courts to dismiss an appeal for want

of prosecution when an appellant fails to timely file a brief); see also TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(c) 04-22-00637-CV

(allowing appellate courts to dismiss an appeal when an appellant fails to comply with a court

order). Appellant failed to file her brief. We, therefore, dismiss this appeal for want of prosecution.
