                                  MEMORANDUM OPINION
                                      PER CURIAM
       This appeal is being dismissed for failure to comply with the Texas Rules of Appellate
Procedure. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3.
       Pursuant to Rule 32.1, Appellant’s docketing statement was due to have been filed at the
time the appeal was perfected, i.e., August 15, 2013. See TEX. R. APP. P. 32.1. On August 19,
2013, this court sent a notice informing Appellant that he should file a docketing statement
within ten days if he had not already done so.
       Appellant did not file the docketing statement. Accordingly, on September 11, 2013, this
court issued another notice advising Appellant that the docketing statement was past due. The
notice further provided that unless the docketing statement was filed on or before September 23,
2013, the appeal would be presented for dismissal in accordance with Rule 42.3. The time for
filing the docketing statement has expired, and Appellant has not complied with the court’s
request. Because Appellant has failed to comply with Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 32.1,
the appeal is dismissed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(c).
Opinion delivered September 25, 2013.
Panel consisted of Worthen, C.J., Griffith, J., and Hoyle, J.
