FROM THE 269TH DISTRICT COURT OF HARRIS COUNTY;

NO. 96-59117; HONORABLE JOHN WOOLDRIDGE, JUDGE

_______________________________

Before BOYD, C.J., and REAVIS and JOHNSON, JJ.
	Appellant Amilee Wendt perfected this appeal from a take nothing judgment on her
negligence claims against appellees.  Both the clerk's record and reporter's record have
been filed.  After a stay was granted on November 6, 2001, appellant's brief was due to be
filed on December 6, 2001.  On March 6, 2002, the appeal was dismissed for failure to file
a brief and not complying with an order of this Court.  In response to the dismissal,
appellant filed an unopposed motion to retain the appeal and clarify the briefing schedule. 
In treating the motion as a timely motion for extension of time to file a motion for rehearing,
the Court granted the motion, withdrew its order of March 6, 2002, and ordered that
appellant's brief be filed no later than June 1, 2002. (1)  Neither the brief nor a motion for
extension of time in which to do so was filed.  By letter dated June 13, 2002, this Court
notified counsel of the defect and also directed counsel to reasonably explain the failure
to file a brief together with a showing that appellees have not been significantly injured by
the delay by June 24, 2002.  Counsel did not respond.
	Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution and failure to comply
with an order of this Court.  See Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(a)(1) and 42.3(b) and (c).

          Appellant, Charlotte Welch, perfected an appeal from the trial court’s summary
judgment.  Welch has now filed a motion to dismiss her appeal and has conformed to the

authorized by Rule 42.1(a)(1) and 43.2(f) of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure. 
Finding the motion complies with the requirements of Rules 10.1 and 42.1(a), we dismiss
the appeal.  Further, the court will tax costs against Welch.  Tex. R. App. P. 42.1(d).
