COURT OF APPEALS SECOND DISTRICT OF TEXAS FORT WORTH NO. 2-09-105-CV JESSIE M. LUYEHO APPELLANT V. MOKAYA O. PETERSON APPELLEE ------------ FROM THE 141ST DISTRICT COURT OF TARRANT COUNTY ------------ MEMORANDUM OPINION 1 -----------This court received Appellant Jessie M. Luyeho s brief on July 28, 2009. On August 5, 2009, we notified Appellant by letter that her brief was defective because it failed to comply with rules 9.4(h) and 38.1(a), (c), (d), (e), (g), (i), and (k) of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure.2 In the letter, we instructed Appellant to file a corrected brief by August 17, 2009 that complies with the 1 ¦ See Tex. R. App. P. 47.4. 2 ¦ See Tex. R. App. P. 9.4(h), 38.1(a), (c), (d), (e), (g), (i), (k). above-referenced rules. We warned Appellant that the failure to file a corrected brief that complies with the rules could result in the dismissal of her appeal.3 On August 17, 2009, we received Appellant s corrected brief. The brief, however, is still defective because it fails to comply with rule 38.1(d), (g), and (i) in that it contains no record references or citations to legal authorities.4 Because we gave Appellant notice of the defects in her brief and because she failed to cure those defects, we deny her pending motion and dismiss this appeal for want of prosecution.5 PER CURIAM PANEL: DAUPHINOT, GARDNER, and WALKER, JJ.
