Charles Lewis v. Dan Willems

Dismissed and Memorandum Opinion filed August 19, 2025

In The

Fifteenth Court of Appeals

NO. 15-25-00049-CV

CHARLES LEWIS, Appellant
V.

DAN WILLEMS, Appellee

On Appeal from the County Court at Law No 1
Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. CC-24-07085-A

MEMORANDUM OPINION

This appeal is from a judgment signed February 26, 2025. The clerk’s record
was filed March 25, 2025. The reporter’s record was filed June 3, 2025. No brief
was filed.

On July 16, 2025, we issued a notice stating that appellant’s brief was due
July 3, 2025, and that the Court may dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution
unless appellant reasonably explains the failure to timely file a brief and how
appellee is not significantly injured by that failure. Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(a)(1). The
notice further states that if appellant does not file either a motion for extension of
time to file a brief or a brief accompanied by a motion for extension with this Court
by July 28, 2025, the appeal would be subject to dismissal without further notice for
want of prosecution. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b).

On July 30, 2025, this Court received two documents from appellant titled
“Voided Judgment” and “Notice of Removal”. Neither of these documents includes
a request for extension to file a brief nor explains appellant’s failure to timely file a
brief and how appellee is not significantly injured by that failure.

We therefore dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution. Id.

PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Chief Justice Brister and Justices Field and Farris.
