V.


KELLY O'BRIEN, Appellee




On Appeal from the 172nd District Court
Jefferson County, Texas

Trial Cause No. E-173349




MEMORANDUM OPINION 
	Health & Safety Management, Inc. d/b/a Cardinal Environmental Laboratory and
Richard P. Griffin perfected a restricted appeal from a default judgment.  The appeal was
submitted without briefs because the appellants failed to file their brief by the February 3,
2006, due date.  See Tex. R. App. P. 38.6(a).  The appellants did not request additional time
to file the brief.  See Tex. R. App. P. 38.6(d).  On April 10, 2006, we notified the parties that
the appeal would be advanced without oral argument.  See Tex. R. App. P. 39.9.  In the
absence of a brief assigning error, we dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution.  Tex. R.
App. P. 38.8(a)(1).
	APPEAL DISMISSED.
