                          MEMORANDUM OPINION
  Before Chief Justice Valdez and Justices Rodriguez and Benavides
             Memorandum Opinion by Justice Benavides

       Haymore Enterprises d/b/a Golden Chick filed a notice of appeal regarding a

judgment signed on January 25, 2018 in cause number CV5140 in the County Court of

Bee County, Texas. The appellant’s brief was originally due on July 2, 2018. On July

6, 2018, the Clerk of the Court notified appellant that the brief had not been timely filed
and that the appeal was subject to dismissal for want of prosecution under Texas Rule of

Appellate Procedure 38.8(a)(1), unless within ten days from the date of receipt of this

letter, appellant reasonably explained the failure and the appellee was not significantly

injured by the appellant’s failure to timely file a brief. To date, appellant has not filed a

response to this Court’s directive or filed a brief.

       Appellant has failed to either reasonably explain its failure to file a brief, file a

motion for extension of time to file the brief, or file the brief. Accordingly, the appeal is

DISMISSED FOR WANT OF PROSECUTION.                     See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a); id. R.

42.3(b).

                                                                GINA M. BENAVIDES,
                                                                Justice
