                          MEMORANDUM OPINION
             Before Justices Rodriguez, Benavides, and Perkes
                     Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam

       The appellants’ brief in the above cause was due on July 9, 2012. On July 20,

2012, the Clerk of the Court notified appellants 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, appellants reasonably explained the failure and the appellee was not significantly

injured by the appellants’ failure to timely file a brief. To date, no response has been

received from appellants.

       Appellants have failed to either reasonably explain their 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), 42.3(b).

                                                                               PER CURIAM

Delivered and filed the
30th day of August, 2012.
