On June 23, 2023, we granted the withdrawal of appellant’s counsel and instructed appellant that her brief was now due to be filed on or before July 28, 2023.

On August 10, 2023, the Clerk of the Court notified appellant that her brief was past due and that, pursuant to Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 38.8(a)(1), the appeal was subject to dismissal for want of prosecution unless, within ten days, appellant provided reasonable explanation for the failure to timely file a brief. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a)(1).

Appellant has neither reasonably explained the failure to file a motion for extension of time nor filed her brief. Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed for want of prosecution.
