                                           Appellant

                     From the County Court at Law No. 9, Bexar County, Texas

PER CURIAM

Sitting:         Karen Angelini, Justice
                 Sandee Bryan Marion, Justice
                 Phylis J. Speedlin, Justice

Delivered and Filed: March 14, 2012

DISMISSED FOR WANT OF PROSECUTION

           Appellant’s brief was due on January 30, 2012. Neither the brief nor a motion for

extension of time was filed. We, therefore, ordered Appellant ChamPale Adams to file, on or

before February 27, 2012, appellant’s brief and a written response reasonably explaining (1) the

failure to timely file the brief and (2) why appellee was not significantly injured by the failure to

timely file a brief. We warned that if Appellant ChamPale Adams failed to file a brief and the

written response by the date ordered, we would dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution. See
                                                                                 04-11-00574-CV

TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a); see also TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(c) (allowing involuntary dismissal if

appellant has failed to comply with a court order). Appellant ChamPale Adams has failed to

respond to our order. Therefore, we dismiss this appeal for want of prosecution. Costs of appeal

are taxed against Appellant ChamPale Adams.
