                                                     MEMORANDUM 
OPINION
 
            Kevin
Jameson Carpenter filed his notice of appeal pro se March 3, 2010.[1]
            The
clerk’s record was filed April 8, 2010. 
No timely request was made in writing at or before the time for
perfecting the appeal for the preparation of a reporter’s record, as required
by Tex. R. App. P. 34.6.  Therefore, appellant’s brief was due June 4,
2010.  
            When
neither a brief nor a motion to extend time for filing the same had been filed
by June 24, 2010, we contacted appellant by letter and informed him that
if a brief had not been filed by July 9, 2010, the appeal would be subject to
dismissal for want of prosecution.  See Tex.
R. App. P. 42.3(b), (c).
            No
brief has been filed, and appellant has taken no other action in pursuit of his
appeal.  Pursuant to Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(b), we dismiss
this appeal for want of prosecution.
