In The Court of Appeals For The First District of Texas ———————————— NO. 01-19-00453-CV ——————————— DON MCCAFFETY, Appellant V. GEORGE BARNSTONE, Appellee
On Appeal from the 157th District Court Harris County, Texas Trial Court Case No. 2017-48731
MEMORANDUM OPINION This is an appeal from the trial court’s final summary judgment order signed on March 12, 2019. Appellant’s brief was originally due on November 12, 2019.
Appellant filed a pro se motion to abate the appeal and remand to the trial court for a new trial. The Court denied this motion on November 19, 2019. On February 25, 2020, we issued a notice advising appellant that unless the brief was filed within ten days, we might dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution. Appellant neither timely filed a brief nor requested an extension. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a)(1) (the appellate court may dismiss for want of prosecution for failure to file appellant’s brief).
Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b), 43.2(f). We dismiss all pending motions as moot.
PER CURIAM Panel consists of Chief Justice Radack and Justices Kelly and Goodman.
