TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN NO. 03-03-00248-CV Sharon Blindert and Doug Blindert, Appellants v. William M. Taylor, M.D. and Austin Center for Outpatient Surgery, Appellees FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF TRAVIS COUNTY, 98TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT NO. GN200693, HONORABLE MARGARET A. COOPER, JUDGE PRESIDING MEMORANDUM OPINION Because appellants Sharon Blindert and Doug Blindert have failed to file an appellants brief, we will dismiss this appeal for want of prosecution. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b). The Clerk of this Court filed the clerk s record in this cause on May 8, 2003. Thus, appellants brief was due June 9, 2003. See id. 38.6(a)(1). By postcard dated October 13, 2003, the Clerk of this Court notified the parties that the appeal was subject to dismissal for want of prosecution unless appellants tendered a motion by October 24 reasonably explaining the failure to file a brief. See id. 38.8(a)(1). Appellants have submitted neither a brief nor a motion reasonably explaining the failure to file a brief. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution on our own motion. See id. 42.3(b). __________________________________________ Jan P. Patterson, Justice Before Chief Justice Law, Justices B. A. Smith and Patterson Dismissed for Want of Prosecution Filed: December 4, 2003 2
