Appellee’s motion was filed November 25th and set for hearing on December 7th. On December 5th appellants tendered a brief. The appellants have not by motion or at argument upon appellee’s motion offered any substantial reason for their failure to prosecute their appeal in accordance with the Florida Appellate Rules, rule 1.1 et seq., 31 F.S.A.
