              Before Chief Justice Wright and Justices FitzGerald and Justice Lewis
                                  Opinion by Justice FitzGerald
       Appellant’s brief in this case is overdue. By postcard dated November 21, 2012, we

notified appellant the time for filing his brief had expired. We directed appellant to file both his

brief and an extension motion within ten days. We cautioned appellant that failure to file his

brief and an extension motion would result in the dismissal of this appeal without further notice.

To date, appellant has not filed his brief, an extension motion, or otherwise corresponded with

the Court regarding the status of his brief.
      Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a)(1); 42.3(b)(c).
