                          MEMORANDUM OPINION

      The trial court signed a final judgment on July 19, 2019. Bridgette Kellar filed

a notice of appeal but failed to file a brief. On February 14, 2020, we notified the

parties that the brief had not been filed and that the appeal would be submitted

without briefs unless we received the brief and a motion for extension of time within

ten days. On March 4, 2020, we notified the parties that the appeal would be

                                          1
submitted to the Court on March 25, 2020, without briefs and without oral argument.

See Tex. R. App. P. 39.8.

      In the absence of a brief assigning error for appellate review, we dismiss the

appeal for want of prosecution. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(a)(1); Tex. R. App. P.

42.3(b).

      APPEAL DISMISSED.
