¶1MOTION TO DISMISS
¶2On October 22, 1985, the trial court rendered judgment on the issue of when the community regime existing between the parties terminated. From that judgment the defendant-appellant was granted a sus-pensive appeal which was dismissed by the trial court for failure to post bond on September 11, 1986. The appellant was allowed to proceed with the matter as a devolutive appeal.
¶3The trial court rendered judgment partitioning the community and signed the judgment on June 12, 1986. The appellant filed a motion for a suspensive appeal which was granted on July 17, 1986.
¶4The appellant requested an extension to file her brief which we granted and confirmed by letter dated October 6, 1986. This letter noticed the appellant that her brief was due in accord with the extension on October 27, 1986. On October 31, 1986, having received no brief from the appellant, this court forwarded to the appellant notice that her appeal would be dismissed in accord with Rule 2-8.6 of the Uniform Rules, which according to the rule, would have made her brief due on December 1, 1986.
¶5On December 8, 1986, the court received what purported to be a brief on behalf of the appellant consisting of only a short statement of the case and a broad specification of error. (See Appendix 1). The purported brief contained no legal arguments, law or jurisprudence and no recitation of facts. This purported brief was filed seven days late.
¶6The appellant having failed to timely file a brief as required by Rule 2-12.6 of the Uniform Rules — Courts of Appeal, her appeal is hereby dismissed at her cost. We do not deem the appellant’s attempt to file what purported to be a brief, seven days late, sufficient cause for us to suspend our rules.
