THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Appellant Ronald Ducote, doing business as a bail bondsman, filed notices of appeal in this bond forfeiture proceeding but failed to file briefs. On August 3, 2009, we notified the parties that briefs had not been filed and warned that failure to file briefs could result in dismissal of the appeals for want of prosecution. Ducote did not request additional time and failed to file briefs. On September 24, 2009, we notified the parties that the appeals would be submitted to the Court without oral argument. See Tex. R. App. P. 39.8. In the absence of briefs assigning error for appellate review, we dismiss the appeals for want of prosecution. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(a)(1); Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(b).



APPEALS DISMISSED.
