On Appeal from the 11th District Court

Harris County, Texas

MEMORANDUM OPINION

          Appellant’s brief in this case was originally due on December 26, 2011. Appellant failed to file his brief by that date. On January 3, 2012, the Clerk of this Court sent appellant a notice that his brief was past due and that his appeal could be dismissed for want of prosecution without further notice if appellant failed to file, within a ten-day period, his appellant’s brief and a motion for extension of time providing a reasonable explanation for his failure to timely file his appellant’s brief. Appellant failed to file his appellant’s brief within ten days from the notice of possible dismissal for want of prosecution. We dismiss this case for want of prosecution. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(b) (authorizing involuntary dismissal of civil case for want of prosecution). All pending motions are dismissed as moot.

PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Chief Justice Radack and Justices Higley and Brown.
