PER CURIAM.
This accelerated appeal is being dismissed for want of prosecution. TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(b). Appellant perfected his appeal on June 16, 2005. Thereafter, the clerk's record was filed on August 18, 2005, making Appellant's brief due on or before September 7, 2005. Upon Appellant's motion, the time for filing his brief was extended until October 27, 2005. When Appellant failed to file his brief within the required time, this Court notified him on November 1, 2005 that the brief was past due and warned that if no motion for extension of time to file the brief were received by November 14, 2005, the appeal would be dismissed for want of prosecution under Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 42.3(b). The notice further informed Appellant that the motion for extension of time must contain a reasonable explanation for his failure to file the brief and a showing that Appellee had not suffered material injury thereby.
To date, Appellant has not filed his brief or filed a motion for extension of time. Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed for want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(b).
J.25 CIVIL — REVERSED DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE Each party pays their own way in both courts.
