       Appellant’s brief in this case is overdue. By postcard dated April 24, 2019, we notified
appellant the time for filing his brief had expired. We directed appellant to file a brief and an
extension motion within ten days. We cautioned appellant that failure to file a brief and an
extension motion would result in the dismissal of this appeal without further notice. To date,
appellant has not filed his brief or otherwise corresponded with the Court regarding the status of
this appeal.
       Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal. TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a)(1); 42.3(b), (c).
