                          Before QUINN, C.J., and PARKER and DOSS, JJ.

        Appellant, W.T., proceeding pro se, appeals from the trial court’s order terminating

his parental rights in a private termination proceeding in which the Department of Family

and Protective Services was not involved. 1 Appellant’s brief was originally due January

11, 2024, but was not filed. By letter of January 16, 2024, we notified Appellant that the

appeal was subject to dismissal for want of prosecution, without further notice, if a brief

was not received by January 26. To date, Appellant has neither filed a brief nor a motion

requesting an extension to do so.

        1 To protect the privacy of the parties involved, we refer to them by their initials.   See TEX. R. APP.
P. 9.8(b).
       Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal for want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P.

38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b).
