                               Opinion by Chief Justice Wright
       In a postcard notice dated September 11, 2013, the Court informed appellant that his brief

was past due. We instructed appellant to file a brief along with an extension motion within ten

days. We cautioned appellant that his appeal would be dismissed if he failed to file a brief and

extension motion within the time requested. As of today’s date, appellant has not filed a brief.

Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a)(1).
