                                       ORDER

       Appellant is represented by retained counsel, Phillip Neal Slaughter.            No
reporter=s record has been filed in this case. Karen Woolsey, the court reporter, informed
this Court that appellant had not made arrangements for payment for the reporter=s record.
On August 25, 2011, the clerk of this court notified appellant that we would consider and
decide those issues that do not require a reporter=s record unless appellant, within 15 days
of notice, provided this court with proof of payment for the record. See Tex. R. App. P.
37.3(c). Appellant filed no reply.
       On September 29, 2011, we ordered Phillip Neal Slaughter, to file a brief in this
appeal on or before October 31, 2011. No response has been filed. No extension of time
has been filed. No brief has been filed.
       Accordingly, we order Phillip Neal Slaughter to file a brief with the clerk of this
Court within twenty (20) days of the date of this order. If Phillip Neal Slaughter does
not timely file the brief as ordered, the Court will issue a show cause order directing him to
appear before this Court on a date certain to show cause why he should not be held in
contempt for failing to file the brief as ordered. Contempt of court is punishable by a fine
and/or confinement in jail.
