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

       The appellant's brief in the above cause was due on August 30, 2013.             On

September 13, 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. See TEX. R. APP. P.

38.8(a)(1). 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)(1), 42.3(b).

                                                  PER CURIAM
