    RE:      Court of Appeals Number:     03-15-00319-CV
             Trial Court Case Number:     C-l -CV-14-007906

    Style:    David Raetzsch
              v. Barbara Lovings Horton

    Dear Mr. Raetzsch:

            Appellant's brief was due in this Court on September 24,2015 and is overdue. See Tex. R.
    App. P. 38.6(a). If appellant fails to file a brief, the Court may dismiss the appeal for want of
    prosecution unless appellant reasonably explains the failure and appellee is not significantly injured
    by that failure. If this Court does not receive a satisfactory response to this notice on or before
    Monday, October 19. 2015. the Court may dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution. Motions
    for extension must be accompanied by the! $10.00 filing fee and a certificate of conference. See
    Tex. R. App. P. 5 and 10.1(a)(5).

                                                          Very truly yours,

                                                         JEFFREY D. KYLE, CLERK
