DAVID GEORGE, JR.                                                             APPELLANT

LAURA LEIGH L. LAWLOR-GEORGE                                             APPELLEE

On December 18, 2002, we notified appellant that its brief had not been filed as required by TEX. R. APP. P. 38.6(a). We stated we would dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution unless appellant or any party desiring to continue this appeal filed with the court within ten days a response showing grounds for continuing the appeal. We have not received any response.

Because appellant's brief has not been filed, we dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a), 42.3(b).

PER CURIAM

PANEL D: HOLMAN, GARDNER, and WALKER, JJ.
