MEMORANDUM
 
OPINION
(footnote: 1) 
AND JUDGMENT

----------

On February 17, 2009, we notified appellant that his brief had not been filed as required by Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 38.6(a).  
See
 Tex. R. App. P.
 38.6(a).  We stated we could dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution unless appellant or any party desiring to continue this appeal filed with the court within ten days a motion reasonably explaining the failure to file a brief and the need for an extension.  
See
 Tex. R. App. P. 10.5(b)(1), 38.8(a)(1), 42.3.  We have not received any response.

Because appellant’s brief has not been filed, we dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution.  
See
 
Tex. R. App. P.
 38.8(a), 42.3(b), 43.2(f).

Appellee Skyline Mobile Home Estate’s March 11, 2009 motion to dismiss appellant’s appeal for failure to timely file a brief is denied as moot.

Appellant shall pay all costs of this 
appeal, for which let execution issue.

PER CURIAM
