In the Court of Appeals Second Appellate District of Texas at Fort Worth ___________________________ No. 02-26-00200-CV ___________________________ DAMARIS MCCALLEY, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee On Appeal from the 16th District Court Denton County, Texas Trial Court No. 25-13152-16 Before Sudderth, C.J.; Kerr and Birdwell, JJ. Per Curiam Memorandum Opinion MEMORANDUM OPINION AND JUDGMENT The Rules of Appellate Procedure provide that “an appellant must file a brief,” Tex. R. App. P. 38.6(a), but Appellant Damaris McCalley has failed to file a brief. On August 7, 2026, we sent McCalley a letter warning that we could dismiss his appeal for want of prosecution unless, within ten days, he filed a brief and an accompanying motion reasonably explaining the brief’s untimeliness. See Tex. R. App. P. 10.5(b)(1), 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b). More than a month has passed since our letter, and we have not received a response. Accordingly, we dismiss McCalley’s appeal for want of prosecution. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b), 43.2(f). McCalley must pay all costs of this appeal. Per Curiam Delivered: October 1, 2026 2
