ELVISHA BRIGHTMAN, ET AL., Appellants V. MARSHALL HOUSING AUTHORITY, Appellee

On Appeal from the County Court at Law Harrison County, Texas Trial Court No. 2024-11730-CCL

Before Stevens, C.J., van Cleef and Rambin, JJ.

Memorandum Opinion by Justice van Cleef MEMORANDUM OPINION Elvisha Brightman filed a timely notice of appeal on January 21, 2025. The clerk’s record was filed on February 21, 2025. The reporter’s record was filed on March 19, 2025. The original deadline for Brightman’s appellate brief was April 18, 2025. When neither a brief nor a motion to extend time for filing same was received by April 25, 2025, this Court advised Brightman by letter that the brief was late and gave an additional fifteen days, to May 12, 2025, to file a brief. We warned Brightman that the failure to file a brief by the May 12, 2025, deadline would subject this appeal to dismissal for want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b), (c).

Brightman has not filed a brief in compliance with this Court’s deadline; consequently, the appeal is ripe for dismissal for want of prosecution. Pursuant to Rules 38.8 and 42.3 of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure, we dismiss this appeal for want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b), (c).
