CRAWFORD AND COMPANY APPELLEE

FROM COUNTY COURT AT LAW NO. 1 OF TARRANT COUNTY

MEMORANDUM OPINION ^{(footnote: 1)}

------------

Appellant’s brief was originally due May 30, 2006.  We granted a motion for extension of time to file appellant’s brief until July 5, 2006 and denied a second motion for extension of time on August 1, 2006.  Appellant then informed this court that she had found counsel to represent her.  Accordingly, on August 23, 2006, we sent appellant a letter stating that on or before September 5, 2006, her counsel should file a motion on her behalf requesting additional time to file a brief and that if such a motion was not filed, the appeal may be dismissed for want of prosecution.   See Tex. R. App. P. 10.5(b), 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b).  We also stated that appellant’s counsel should file a notice of representation with this court.   See Tex. R. App. P. 6.1(c).

We have not received a motion from an attorney purporting to represent appellant, nor have we received any other response to our letter.  Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution.   See Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b).
