                          MEMORANDUM OPINION
                   Before Justices Garza, Perkes, and Longoria
                        Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam

       The appellants’ brief in the above cause was due on August 15, 2016. On August

18, 2016, 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 the 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
6th day of October, 2016.
