IN THE MATTER OF THE MARRIAGE OF

DEBORAH L. GOYNES AND GARY CHARLES GOYNES

AND IN THE INTEREST OF GARRETT C. GOYNES, A CHILD

 

---

                                              

On Appeal from the 76th Judicial District Court

Titus County, Texas

Trial Court No. 31785

---

                                                 

Before Morriss, C.J., Ross and Carter, JJ.

Memorandum Opinion by Chief Justice Morriss

 

 

MEMORANDUM OPINION  

            Gary Charles Goynes has filed pro se an appeal from a final decree of divorce signed December 7, 2005. The clerk's record was filed in this Court February 21, 2006, and the reporter's record was filed April 5, 2006. Goynes' brief was, therefore, due May 5, 2006. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.6.

            On May 23, 2006, we contacted Goynes by letter, reminding him that his brief was overdue and that we had not received a reasonable explanation for his failure to file the brief. We also warned Goynes that, if we did not receive his brief within fifteen days of the date of the letter, we would dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution pursuant to Rule 42.3(b) and (c) of the Rules of Appellate Procedure. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(b), (c).

            As of the date of this opinion, we have received no response.

            We dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution.

                                            Memorandum Opinion by Justice Moseley

                                                      MEMORANDUM OPINION

 

            George P. Pipes, appellant, filed a motion to extend time to file his notice of appeal on October 7, 2011, which was granted.  No notice of appeal has been filed.

            On November 30, 2011, we contacted Pipes by letter, giving him an opportunity to cure this defect, and warning him that if we did not receive an adequate response within ten days, this appeal would be subject to dismissal for want of prosecution.  See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(b), (c).

            We have received no communication from Pipes. Pursuant to Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(b), we dismiss this appeal for want of prosecution.
