LaTonya Anthony v. Jacqueline Martin A/K/A Jackie Martin

In the Court of Appeals Second Appellate District of Texas at Fort Worth ___________________________ No. 02-26-00177-CV ___________________________ LATONYA ANTHONY, Appellant V. JACQUELINE MARTIN A/K/A JACKIE MARTIN, Appellee On Appeal from County Court at Law No. 2 Denton County, Texas Trial Court No. CV-2026-01038-JP Before Birdwell, Bassel, and Womack, JJ. Per Curiam Memorandum Opinion  MEMORANDUM OPINION AND JUDGMENT Appellant’s brief was due on July 6, 2026. On July 17, 2026, we notified appellant that her 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, she 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. 1 See Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b), 43.2(f). Per Curiam Delivered: September 3, 2026 Appellee has filed “Appellee’s Renewed Motion to Dismiss for Want of 1 Prosecution.” Given our disposition of this appeal, that motion is denied as moot. 2
