                          MEMORANDUM OPINION

 Before Chief Justice Contreras and Justices Benavides and Tijerina
            Memorandum Opinion by Justice Benavides

      On January 12, 2022, appellants filed a notice of appeal. On March 10, 2022, the

Clerk of the Court notified appellants that the clerk's record in the above cause was due
on February 11, 2022, and that the district clerk, Ms. Esther Ruiz, had notified this Court

that appellants failed to make arrangements for payment of the clerk's record. The Clerk

of this Court notified appellants of this failure so that steps could be taken to correct the

defect, if it could be done. See TEX. R. APP. P. 37.3, 42.3(b),(c). Appellants were advised

that if arrangements to pay for the clerk’s record and proof of payment were not made

and filed within ten days from the date of receipt of this notice, the appeal would be

dismissed for want of prosecution.

       Appellants failed to comply with the notice from the clerk requiring a response or

other action within the time specified; accordingly, the appeal is dismissed for want of

prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(b), (c).

                                                                GINA M. BENAVIDES
                                                                Justice

Delivered and filed on the
19th day of May, 2022.
