Opinion filed November 8, 2018 In The Eleventh Court of Appeals __________ No. 11-18-00200-CV __________ PETE SOTO, Appellant V. JULIE SOTO, Appellee On Appeal from the 266th District Court Erath County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. CV34641 MEMORANDUM OPINION Appellant’s brief was originally due to be filed in this court on or before September 21, 2018. On October 4, 2018, this court notified Appellant by letter that Appellant’s brief was past due, and on this court’s own motion, we extended the deadline to October 24, 2018. In the October 4 letter, the clerk of this court informed Appellant that the failure to timely file his brief by the October 24 due date “may result in dismissal of the appeal.” See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b). As of this date, Appellant has not filed a brief, nor has he requested an extension of time in which to file his brief. Based upon Appellant’s failure to prosecute this appeal in a timely manner, we conclude that this appeal should be dismissed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b). Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal for want of prosecution. PER CURIAM November 8, 2018 Panel consists of: Bailey, C.J., Willson, J., and Wright, S.C.J.1 Willson, J., not participating. 1 Jim R. Wright, Senior Chief Justice (Retired), Court of Appeals, 11th District of Texas at Eastland, sitting by assignment. 2
