V.

NXRTBH VANDERBILT, LLC, Appellee

On Appeal from the County Court at Law No. 1
Tarrant County, Texas
Trial Court No. 2024-000762-1

Before Stevens, C.J., van Cleef and Rambin, JJ.
Memorandum Opinion by Justice Rambin
MEMORANDUM OPINION

Janesha Dotson filed a timely notice of appeal on March 15, 2024. 1 The clerk’s record

was filed on July 12, 2024. Dotson’s appellate brief was due on September 5, 2024. When

neither a brief nor a motion to extend time for filing same was received by September 19, 2024,

this Court advised Dotson by letter that her brief was late. We also warned Dotson that the

failure to file a brief by October 4, 2024, would subject this appeal to dismissal for want of

prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b), (c).

Dotson did not respond to our communication and did not file an appellate brief. As a

result, Dotson’s appeal is ripe for dismissal for want of prosecution. Consequently, pursuant to

Rules 38.8 and 42.3 of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure, we dismiss this appeal for want

of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b), (c).
