JAMES B. CRENSHAW, Appellant v. MIDWEST CONCRETE, INC., STEVE HOLBERT, KENNETH THOMAS, AND BEVERLY HOLBERT, Appellees
Memorandum Opinion
James B. Crenshaw appeals from the trial court's summary judgment. We dismiss the appeal. On July 17, 2000, this Court issued an opinion removing this case from the docket and abating it because appellee Midwest Concrete had filed a bankruptcy petition. The bankruptcy proceedings were closed as of July 15, 2010, and this court reinstated the case on the docket on September 14, 2010. Also on September 14, 2010, counsel for appellant was notified that appellant's brief was due no later than October 14, 2010, no extension would be granted, and if the brief was not filed by the deadline, the appeal would be dismissed for want of prosecution. To date, no brief or motion to extend the deadline has been filed. Nor has the court received any explanation for the omission.
Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution. Tex.R.App. P. 38.8(a)(1); 42.3(b).
