<STRONG>PER CURIAM</STRONG>	

<P>	We will dismiss this appeal for mootness and for want of prosecution.  On
December 10, 1997, this Court received notice from appellant advising that the trial court's ruling
on a request for a temporary restraining order was moot.  We did not receive a motion to dismiss,
however.  On February 4, 1998, this Court's clerk's office sent notice to appellant that his brief
was overdue.  We have received no response and no brief.</P>

<P>	We dismiss the cause as moot, according to appellant's notice.  Alternatively, we
dismiss the cause for want of prosecution for failure of appellant to file a brief within the
prescribed period.  Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(a)(1).</P>
