TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN





NO. 03-94-00434-CV





Benny E. Jay, Appellant


v.


Robert E. McCool, Appellee





FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF TRAVIS COUNTY, 98TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT

NO. 93-15197, HONORABLE F. SCOTT MCCOWN, JUDGE PRESIDING





PER CURIAM

	Appellant Benny E. Jay perfected an appeal from a judgment rendered in favor of
appellee Robert E. McCool in his suit to recover on a note.  Because Jay has not filed his brief
in this appeal, we will dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution.
	The Clerk of this Court filed the transcript on August 19, 1994, and the statement
of facts on September 1, 1994.  After this Court granted Jay's motion for an extension of time to
file a brief, his brief was due on January 2, 1995.  To date, Jay has submitted neither a brief nor
a second motion for an extension of time to file a brief. (1)  Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for
want of prosecution.  Tex. R. App. P. 60(a)(2), 74(l)(1); Sentinel Pipe Servs., Inc. v. Tandy
Computer Leasing, 825 S.W.2d 212, 212 (Tex. App.--Fort Worth 1992, no writ); Dickson v.
Dickson, 541 S.W.2d 895, 896 (Tex. Civ. App.--Austin 1976, writ dism'd w.o.j.).

1.      1  By letter dated January 23, 1995, the Clerk of this Court notified Jay that the appeal was
subject to dismissal unless he tendered a motion reasonably explaining his failure to file a brief
and showing that McCool had "not suffered material injury thereby."  Tex. R. App. P. 74(l)(1);
see Tex. R. App. P. 60(a)(2).  Jay's counsel responded that he believed the parties had settled the
matter.  However, this Court has not received a motion to dismiss pursuant to the settlement
agreement.
