On May 12th. defendants in error filed motion to dismiss, of which notice was given to plaintiffs in ■error, who responded and for good cause shown were given 20 days from May 22nd in which to file brief. On June 12th, plaintiffs in error made application for an extension of time in which to file brief, and for good cause shown, were given 30 days from that date in which to file brief, which extension of time expired on July 12, 1923, at which time no brief had been filed, and none have been filed up to this date, and no further application for extension of time made, and no reason given for the failure of plaintiffs in error to file brief; wherefore, the court on its own motion dismisses the appeal.
