Opinion

NUMBER 13-17-00353-CV COURT OF APPEALS THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS CORPUS CHRISTI - EDINBURG ____________________________________________________________ JOSE JAIME RODRIGUEZ, Appellant, v. BENITO GARZA JR., Appellee. ____________________________________________________________ On appeal from the 430th District Court of Hidalgo County, Texas. ____________________________________________________________ MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Justices Contreras, Longoria, and Hinojosa Memorandum Opinion by Justice Hinojosa Appellant, Jose Jamie Rodriguez, appealed a final protective order signed by the 430th District Court of Hidalgo County, Texas. Rodriguez filed an “Anders brief” in this Court. On June 5, 2018, the Clerk of this Court notified Rodriguez’s counsel that his brief failed to explain, with references to authority, how the provisions of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), and its progeny applied in the context of a civil protective order.

The Court ordered Rodriguez’s counsel to file a supplemental brief within ten calendar days and warned that failure to do so may result in dismissal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3.

Rodriguez’s counsel has not filed the supplemental brief that the Court requested.

The Court, having considered the documents on file and appellant’s failure to file the supplemental brief requested, is of the opinion that the appeal should be dismissed.

See id. R. 42.3(b),(c). Accordingly, the appeal is DISMISSED for want of prosecution.

Any pending motions are DISMISSED AS MOOT.

LETICIA HINOJOSA Justice Delivered and filed the 28th day of June, 2018.
