On Appeal from the 191st Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. DC-17-15478

ORDER Appellant’s brief is overdue. It was first due May 17, 2019. When it had not been filed

On July 9, 2019, appellant sought a second extension. We again granted the motion,

ordering the brief be filed by August 31, 2019 and cautioning that failure to comply could result

in the appeal being dismissed without further notice. By motion filed September 3, 2019,

appellant now seeks a third extension. We GRANT the motion to the extent we ORDER appellant’s brief be filed no later than

September 20, 2019. We caution appellant that the appeal will be dismissed without further

notice should the brief not be filed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b),(c).
