We ORDER Appellant to show cause in writing within TEN DAYS of the date of this order why this appeal should not be dismissed for want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a), 42.3(b), (c); Elizondo v. City of San Antonio, 975 S.W.2d 61, 63 (Tex. App.—San Antonio 1998, no pet.).

If Appellant fails to show cause as ordered, this appeal will be dismissed without further notice. See id. R. 42.3(b), (c); Elizondo, 975 S.W.2d at 63.
