Fourth Court of Appeals San Antonio, Texas April 23, 2020 No. 04-20-00030-CV Craig SWIFT, Appellant v. DENNIS SKINNER DS PROPERTY MANAGEMENT, Appellee From the County Court at Law No. 3, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2019CV09769 Honorable John Longoria, Judge Presiding ORDER On March 5, 2020, we ordered appellant to file his appellant’s brief by April 6, 2020. Neither the brief nor a motion for extension of time has been filed. We therefore ORDER appellant to file, by May 8, 2020, his brief and a written response reasonably explaining: (1) his failure to timely file a brief; and (2) why appellee is not significantly injured by appellant’s failure to timely file a brief. If appellant fails to timely file a brief and the written response by the date ordered, we will dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a); see also TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(c) (allowing involuntary dismissal if appellant fails to comply with court order). _________________________________ Beth Watkins, Justice IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and affixed the seal of the said court on this 23rd day of April, 2020. ___________________________________ MICHAEL A.
