  BARBARA ELLEN LYNCH, Appellant

                    V.

     JASON PAUL NIELD, Appellee

  On Appeal from the 158th District Court
         Denton County, Texas
      Trial Court No. 22-4364-158

  Before Womack, Wallach, and Walker, JJ.
    Per Curiam Memorandum Opinion
                MEMORANDUM OPINION AND JUDGMENT

      On October 14, 2022, we notified appellant that her brief had not been filed as

the appellate rules require. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.6(a). We stated that we could

dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution unless, on or before October 24, 2022,

appellant filed with the court an appellant’s brief and an accompanying motion

reasonably explaining the brief’s untimely filing and why an extension was needed. See

Tex. R. App. P. 10.5(b), 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b). We have received no response.

      Because appellant has failed to file a brief even after we afforded an

opportunity to explain the initial failure, we dismiss the appeal for want of

prosecution. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b), 43.2(f).

      Appellant must pay all costs of this appeal.
