VERNON KING, JR., Appellant

V.

BRENDA CHANEY, ET AL., Appellees

On Appeal from the 412th District Court

Brazoria County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. 54892

M E M O R A N D U M   O P I N I O N

            This is an appeal from a dismissal order signed December 9, 2010.  The clerk’s record was filed April 9, 2010, and there was no reporter’s record taken in this case.  Therefore, appellant’s brief was due on or before May 10, 2010.  See Tex. R. App. P. 38.6(a).  Appellant did not file a brief or a motion for extension of time to file the brief. 

            On May 27, 2010, this court issued an order stating that unless appellant filed his brief, together with a motion reasonably explaining why the brief was late, on or before June 14, 2010, the court would dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution.  See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(b).  Appellant filed no response.

            Accordingly, the appeal is ordered dismissed.

                                                                        PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Chief Justice Hedges and Justices Yates and Boyce.
