Marilyn Roth v. Michael Stephen Williams
Marilyn Roth v. Michael Stephen Williams
Opinion
Appellant, Marilyn Roth appeals from a judgment of the trial court in favor of appellee Michael Stephen Williams. Because appellant has failed to file a brief, we will dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution. Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b).
The Clerk of this Court filed the reporter's record in this cause on October 14, 1997. Accordingly, appellant's brief was due on Thursday, November 13, 1997. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.6(a)(2). By letter dated December 3, 1997, the clerk of this Court notified the parties that appellant's brief was overdue and that the appeal was subject to dismissal unless appellant tendered a motion for extension of time reasonably explaining the failure to file a brief. Thus far, appellant has neither submitted a brief nor a motion for extension of time to file a brief.
Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution on our own motion. Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(b).
