On July 26, 2017, we notified appellant S. Lee Merritt that his brief had not been filed as required by Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 38.6(a). See Tex. R. App. P. 38.6(a). We stated we could dismiss the appeal for S. Lee Merritt for want of prosecution unless appellant S. Lee Merritt or any party desiring to continue this appeal filed with the court within ten days a response showing grounds for continuing the appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3. We have not received any response.
Because appellant S. Lee Merritt's brief has not been filed, we dismiss the appeal of S. Lee Merritt for want of prosecution. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(a), 42.3(b), 43.2(f).
