IN THE INTEREST OF B.T. AND B.T., CHILDREN

On Appeal from the 393rd District Court
Denton County, Texas
Trial Court No. 20-10161-393

Before Womack, Wallach, and Walker, JJ.
Per Curiam Memorandum Opinion
MEMORANDUM OPINION AND JUDGMENT

Appellant’s brief was due on March 13, 2026. On March 24, 2026, we notified

appellant that her brief had not been filed as the appellate rules require. See Tex. R.

App. P. 38.6(a). We stated that we could dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution

unless, on or before April 6, 2026, appellant filed with the court an appellant’s brief

and an accompanying motion reasonably explaining the brief’s untimely filing and

why an extension was needed. See Tex. R. App. P. 10.5(b), 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b). We

have received no response.

Because appellant has failed to file a brief even after we afforded an

opportunity to explain the initial failure, we dismiss the appeal for want of

prosecution. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b), 43.2(f).

Per Curiam

Delivered: April 30, 2026
