In the Court of Appeals Second Appellate District of Texas at Fort Worth ___________________________ No. 02-26-00142-CV ___________________________ JESSICA LEANN HURD, Appellant V. DAVID SIMPSON, CRNA, Appellee On Appeal from the 236th District Court Tarrant County, Texas Trial Court No. 236-366982-25 Before Bassel, Womack, and Wallach, JJ. Per Curiam Memorandum Opinion MEMORANDUM OPINION AND JUDGMENT Appellant’s brief was due on July 1, 2026. On July 15, 2026, we notified Appellant, who is appearing pro se, 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, 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). Per Curiam Delivered: August 31, 2026 2
