<STRONG>PER CURIAM</STRONG>

<BR WP="BR1"><BR WP="BR2">
<P>	Ronald Reed Juergens sued Balcones Pizza, Inc. d/b/a Domino's Pizza and Domino's
Pizza, Inc. for personal injuries he suffered in an automobile collision.  Juergens appeals the summary
judgment granted against his claims.  We will dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution.</P>

<P>	Juergens has failed to file a brief.  The transcript was filed on January 9, 1997.  Juergens'
brief was due thirty days later, on February 10, 1997.  <EM>See</EM> Tex. R. App. P. 74(k).  On April 23, 1997,
the clerk of this Court sent Juergens's counsel a letter notifying him that his brief was overdue.  In this letter,
the clerk warned that failure to file a timely brief could result in dismissal for want of prosecution.  <EM>See</EM> Tex.
R. App. P. 74(<EM>l</EM>)(1).  The letter requested a response by May 5, 1997.  Juergens has filed no response or
brief.</P>

<P>	We accordingly dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution.  Tex. R. App. P. 74(<EM>l</EM>)(1).</P>
