MOLINA D/B/A PLATINUM RISK INSURANCE SERVICES Appellant, V. CONNIE HINOJOSA, Appellee. ____________________________________________________________ On appeal from County Court at Law No. 5 of Nueces County, Texas. ____________________________________________________________ MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Justices Benavides, Hinojosa, and Tijerina Memorandum Opinion written by Justice Tijerina Appellant filed a notice of appeal on February 10, 2020. On the same date, the clerk notified appellant that the notice of appeal was not in compliance with TEX. R. APP. P. 9.5 and 25.1. To date, the appellant has neither responded nor cured the defects in the notice of appeal. On March30, 2020, the clerk notified appellant that her docketing statement was past due. On April 15, 2020, the clerk sent a second notice regarding the defects in appellant’s notice of appeal; however, the notice was returned undeliverable. On September 17, 2020, the clerk sent an email to appellant requesting an updated mailing address, and no response has been received. Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.1(b) requires unrepresented parties to sign any document filed and "give the party's mailing address, telephone number, fax number, if any, and email address." See TEX. R. APP. P. 9.1(b). Appellant has not provided this court with a forwarding address. Appellant has not taken any action to prosecute this appeal since February, 2020. Furthermore, Rule 42.3 permits an appellate court, on its own initiative after giving ten days' notice to all parties, to dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution or for failure to comply with a requirement of the appellate rules. See id. 42.3(b), (c). Accordingly, We DISMISS the appeal for want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3. JAIME TIJERINA Justice Delivered and filed this 3rd day of December, 2020. 2
