LADERA APARTMENTS D/B/A STARWOOD PROPERTY MORTGAGE,

On Appeal from County Court at Law No. 2
Denton County, Texas
Trial Court No. CV-2026-01879-JP
Before Birdwell, Bassel, and Womack, JJ.
Per Curiam Memorandum Opinion
MEMORANDUM OPINION AND JUDGMENT
Appellant’s brief was due on September 10, 2026. On October 5, 2026, we
notified appellant that the brief had not been filed as the appellate rules require. See
Tex. R. App. P. 38.6(a). We stated that we could dismiss the appeal for want of
prosecution unless, within ten days, appellant filed with the court an appellant’s brief
and an accompanying motion reasonably explaining the brief’s untimely filing and
why an extension was needed. See Tex. R. App. P. 10.5(b), 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b). We
have received no response.
Because appellant has failed to file a brief even after we afforded an
opportunity to explain the initial failure, we dismiss the appeal for want of
prosecution. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b), 43.2(f).
