BOWIE CENTRAL APPRAISAL DISTRICT, Appellee On Appeal from the 102nd District Court Bowie County, Texas Trial Court No. 12C1004-102 Before Morriss, C.J., Moseley and Burgess, JJ. Memorandum Opinion by Justice Burgess MEMORANDUM OPINION Mark Bradford filed a timely notice of appeal on October 27, 2016. The clerk’s record was filed January 18, 2017, and the reporter’s record was filed December 19, 2016. On January 5, 2017, this Court received a document from Bradford purporting to be his brief in this matter. By letter dated January 19, 2017, this Court advised Bradford that the document he submitted was not filed because it failed to meet the requirements of Rule 38.1 of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.1. The January 19 letter explained, in detail, the requirements of Rule 38.1 and specifically advised Bradford how his brief failed to comply with the Rule. The letter further informed Bradford that the deadline for filing a brief that complied with Rule 38.1 had been extended to February 21, 2017. Finally, we warned Bradford in the letter that his failure to file a compliant brief by February 21, 2017, would subject this appeal to dismissal for want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b), (c). We have received no responsive communication from Bradford and have not received his appellate brief.1 Having not received any response to this Court’s letter of January 19, 2017, Bradford’s appeal is ripe for dismissal for want of prosecution. 1 Bradford filed a motion for the appointment of counsel on February 13, 2017. February 22, 2017. 2 That motion was overruled on Consequently, pursuant to Rules 38.8 and 42.3 of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure, we dismiss this appeal for want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b), (c). Ralph K. Burgess Justice Date Submitted: Date Decided: March 22, 2017 March 23, 2017 3
