MUMTAZ AHMED, Appellant V. SMAS MANAGEMENT, Appellee

On Appeal from the County Civil Court at Law No. 2 Harris County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 994895

MEMORANDUM OPINION Appellant, Mumtaz Ahmed, has failed to timely file a brief. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.6(a) (governing time to file brief), 38.8(a) (governing failure of appellant to file brief). Appellant’s brief was first due on August 31, 2012. After being notified that this appeal was subject to dismissal, appellant did not respond.

See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a)(1) (authorizing dismissal for failure to file brief); 42.3 (allowing involuntary dismissal of appeal).

Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution. We dismiss any pending motions as moot.

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