DISMISSED FOR WANT OF PROSECUTION

           On August 25, 2023, the trial court clerk filed a notification of late record, stating that the

appellant had failed to pay the fee for preparing the clerk’s record. On September 18, 2023, we

ordered appellant to provide written proof to this court within ten days that either (1) the clerk’s

fee had been paid or arrangements had been made to pay the clerk’s fee; or (2) appellant was

entitled to appeal without paying the clerk’s fee. We warned that if appellant failed to respond,

this appeal would be dismissed for want of prosecution. Appellant failed to respond. We, therefore,

dismiss this appeal for want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 37.3(b) (allowing appellate courts
                                                                                      04-23-00726-CV

to dismiss an appeal for want of prosecution when an appellant fails to pay or make arrangements

to pay the fee for preparing the clerk’s record); see also TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(c) (allowing appellate

courts to dismiss an appeal when an appellant fails to comply with a court order).
