Opinion

Opinion issued February 26, 2019

In The Court of Appeals For The First District of Texas ———————————— NO. 01-18-00837-CV ——————————— ALMA JEAN BASS, Appellant V. DEBORAH BASS, INDEPENDENT EXECUTRIX OF THE ESTATE OF ROBERTA LOIS STANBROUGH, DECEASED, Appellee

On Appeal from the County Court at Law No. 2 Fort Bend County, Texas Trial Court Case No. 16-CPR-029294

MEMORANDUM OPINION Appellant, Alma Jean Bass, has failed to timely file a brief. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.6(a) (governing time to file brief). After being notified that this appeal was subject to dismissal, appellant has not responded. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a) (governing failure of appellant to file brief); 42.3(b) (allowing involuntary dismissal of case). And, based on appellant’s failure to file a brief, appellee, Deborah Bass, Independent Executrix of the Estate of Roberta Lois Stanbrough, Deceased, has filed a motion to dismiss the appeal or, alternatively, affirm the trial court’s judgment. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a); 42.3(b). More than ten days have passed, and appellant has not responded to the motion. See TEX. R. APP. P. 10.1(a)(5), 10.3(a).

Accordingly, we grant appellee’s motion and dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution for failure to file a brief. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(b), 43.2(f). We dismiss all other pending motions as moot.

PER CURIAM Panel consists of Chief Justice Radack and Justices Goodman and Countiss.
