See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(c). On December 29, 2014, Appellant, Leenoris Barnes, filed his brief. On the same date, Barnes was notified that his brief did not comply with Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure 9.4(i)(3) and 38.1(a)-(k). Barnes was also informed that the appeal would be dismissed unless, on or before January 19, 2015, he filed an amended brief along with a motion for extension of time, (1) containing a reasonable explanation for his failure to timely file a brief in strict compliance with Rule 38.8 and (2) showing that Appellee, Shuntia Wheeler, has not suffered material injury thereby. The January 19, 2015 deadline has now passed, and Barnes has neither filed an amended brief nor otherwise responded to this Court’s notice. Because Barnes has failed, after notice, to comply with Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure 9.4(i)(3) and 38.1(a)-(k), the appeal is dismissed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(c). Opinion delivered January 30, 2015. Panel consisted of Worthen, C.J., Hoyle, J., and Neeley, J.
