                         MEMORANDUM OPINION

            Before Justices Benavides, Perkes, and Longoria
                   Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam

      The appellant's brief in the above cause was originally due on July 29, 2013. This

Court granted appellant’s request for extension of time to file the brief on or before

September 10, 2013.

      On October 1, 2013, the Clerk of the Court notified appellant 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, appellant reasonably explained the failure and the appellee was

not significantly injured by the appellant's failure to timely file a brief.   To date, no

response has been received from appellant.

       Appellant has failed to either reasonably explain his failure to file a brief, file a

motion for extension of time to file his brief, or file his 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
7th day of November, 2013.
