  We analyze the lepton sector of a recently proposed nonsymmetric mass matrix
model. Our model gives a unified description of quark and lepton with the same
texture form based on an extended flavor $2 \leftrightarrow 3$ symmetry with a
phase. By investigating possible types of assignment for masses, we find that
the model can lead to large lepton mixings which are consistent with
experimental values. We also find that the model predicts a very small value,
$1.3\times10^{-10}$, for the lepton mixing matrix element square $|U_{13}|^2$.
The CP violating phases in the lepton mixing matrix and a suppression of the
averaged neutrino mass in the neutrinoless double beta decay are also
predicted.
