                              MEMORANDUM OPINION
                Before Chief Justice Wright and Justices Lang-Miers and Lewis
                               Opinion by Chief Justice Wright
       By letter dated January 23, 2013, the Court informed appellant that we have received
notice from the District Clerk of Collin County that the clerk’s record has not been filed because
appellant has not paid the fee for its preparation. We instructed appellant to provide the Court,
within ten days, written verification that he has paid or made arrangements to pay the clerk’s fee
or written documentation that appellant has been found to be entitled to proceed without payment
of costs. We cautioned appellant that failure to provide the document within the time specified
may result in dismissal of the appeal for want of prosecution.
       As of today’s date, appellant has not provided the requested documentation.
Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3 (b) & (c).
