                                       MEMORANDUM OPINION
                                           PER CURIAM
        This appeal is being dismissed for want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(b).
Appellant perfected its appeal on December 18, 2013. The clerk’s record was filed on April 9,
2014, making Appellant’s brief due on or before May 9, 2014. When Appellant failed to file its
brief by the due date, this court notified Appellant on June 5, 2014, that the brief was past due. The
notice warned that if no motion for extension of time to file the brief was received by June 16, 2014,
the appeal would be dismissed for want of prosecution under Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure
42.3(b). Further, the notice informed Appellant that the motion for extension of time must contain a
reasonable explanation for its failure to file the brief and a showing that Appellee had not suffered
material injury thereby.
        To date, Appellant has neither complied with nor otherwise responded to this court’s June 5,
2014 notice. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P.
38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b).
Opinion delivered June 25, 2014.
Panel consisted of Worthen, C.J., Griffith, J., and Hoyle, J.
