Fourth Court of Appeals San Antonio, Texas Tuesday, November 9, 2021 No. 04-21-00271-CV In the Interest of B.C.V, a Child, Appellant From the 285th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2020EM501649 Honorable Nick Catoe Jr., Judge Presiding

ORDER On July 16, 2021, the clerk’s record was filed in this appeal. On August 18, 2021, the reporter’s record was filed. Accordingly, appellant’s brief was originally due on or before September 17, 2021. Appellant filed a motion for extension of time to file his brief, which we granted and extended the time for appellant to file his brief to October 25, 2021. To date, neither appellant’s brief nor a second motion for extension of time to file appellant’s brief has been filed.

We, therefore, ORDER appellant to file, on or before November 22, 2021, his appellant’s brief and a written response reasonably explaining (1) his failure to timely file his brief and (2) why appellee is not significantly injured by appellant’s failure to timely file his brief. If appellant fails to file his brief and the written explanation by the date ordered, this appeal will be dismissed for want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a); see also TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(c) (allowing involuntary dismissal if appellant fails to comply with a court order).
