Because appellant Jainagil Y. Moore has failed to file an appellant's brief, we will dismiss this appeal for want of prosecution. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b).

The Clerk of this Court filed the notice of appeal and the clerk's record in this cause on February 12, 2001. The reporter's record was filed on March 23, 2001. Thus, appellant's brief was due April 23.

By postcard dated June 4, 2001, the Clerk of this Court notified the parties that the appeal was subject to dismissal for want of prosecution unless appellant tendered a motion for extension of time by June 14 reasonably explaining the failure to file a brief. Thus far, appellant has submitted neither 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. See id. 42.3(b).
