See Tex. R. App. P. 38.6(a) (governing time to file brief). On April 29, 2026, the Clerk of this Court notified Appellant that his brief was late and warned Appellant that this appeal might be dismissed after May 9, 2026, unless he filed a brief or a motion for extension of time to file a brief by that date. Appellant responded by filing a motion for extension of time to file his brief on May 7, 2026. We granted that motion and ordered Appellant’s brief due on June 6, 2026. On June 10, 2026, the Clerk of this Court again notified Appellant that his brief was late and warned Appellant that this appeal might be dismissed after June 20, 2026, unless he filed a brief or a motion for extension of time to file a brief by that date. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(a) (authorizing dismissal of appeal for failure to timely file a brief). Appellant did not adequately respond to the notice. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b). We dismiss any pending motions as moot. LISA J.
