Montgomery County, Texas

Trial Cause No. 03-02-00997 CV




MEMORANDUM OPINION 
	Robert L. Edwards II appealed an order denying relief in a suit affecting the parent-child relationship.  The appeal was submitted without briefs because the appellant failed to
file his brief by the March 11, 2006 due date.  See Tex. R. App. P. 38.6(a). The appellant did
not request additional time to file the brief.  See Tex. R. App. P. 38.6(d).  On May 1, 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.
