                             MEMORANDUM OPINION
                        Before Justices Moseley, O’Neill, and FitzGerald
                                 Opinion by Justice FitzGerald

        Appellant filed a deficient brief. The Clerk notified appellant by letter of the defects in

his brief and directed him to file an amended brief in compliance with the Texas Rules of

Appellate Procedure within ten days. She further warned him that failure to comply would result

in dismissal of his appeal. Appellant’s deadline to file an amended brief has expired, and he has

not filed an amended brief or otherwise communicated with this Court.

        Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal on our own motion. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a)(1),

42.3(b), (c).
