                                         Appellee

                   From the 285th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas
                                Trial Court No. 2012-CI-16913
                          Honorable Antonia Arteaga, Judge Presiding

                                          ORDER
        On June 19, 2014, we ordered Appellant to show cause why the notice of appeal
appeared to be not timely filed. On June 30, 2014, Appellant filed his response. We conclude
the notice of appeal was timely filed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 26.3 (requiring the notice of appeal to
be filed within fifteen days after the deadline for filing the notice of appeal).
       We REINSTATE the appellate timetable and set the clerk’s and reporter’s records due on
July 14, 2014.
        On July 1, 2014, the Bexar County district clerk notified this court that Appellant has
failed to pay the clerk’s fee for preparing the record and Appellant is not entitled to a free clerk’s
record.
       Therefore, we ORDER Appellant to provide written proof to this court within TEN
DAYS of the date of this order that (1) the clerk’s fee has been paid or arrangements have been
made to pay the clerk’s fee, or (2) Appellant is entitled to appeal without paying the clerk’s fee.
       If Appellant fails to respond within the time provided, this appeal will be dismissed for
want of prosecution. See id. R. 37.3(b).

                                                       _________________________________

       IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and affixed the seal of the said
court on this 9th day of July, 2014.
