<BR WP="BR1"><BR WP="BR2">
<P>	Appellant's brief was due June 29, 1998.  As of July 15, 1998, appellant had not
tendered either a brief or a motion for extension of time within which to file a brief.  <EM>See</EM> Tex. R.
App. P. 38.6(d).  By letter dated July 15, 1998, the Clerk of this Court notified appellant that
unless appellant provided a reasonable explanation for the failure to file a brief by July 24, 1998
the appeal would be dismissed for want of prosecution.  <EM>See</EM> Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(a)(1).  All
parties have received more than ten days notice of the proposed dismissal; we have received no
response.  <EM>See</EM> Tex. R. App. P. 42.3.  Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution. 
<EM>See</EM> Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(b).</P>
