                           MEMORANDUM OPINION

      The trial court signed a final decree of divorce on December 11, 2015. Glen

Clark Naylor Jr. filed a notice of appeal but failed to file a brief. On July 12, 2016,

we notified the parties that the brief had not been filed and warned the appellant

that his failure to file a brief could result in a dismissal of the appeal for want of

prosecution. Naylor requested additional time to file his brief and received a final

extension. On August 23, 2016, we notified the parties that the brief had not been

filed. On September 6, 2016, we notified the parties that the appeal would be

                                          1
submitted to the Court on September 27, 2016, 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.
