                             MEMORANDUM OPINION
                           Before Justices Fillmore, Evans, and Lewis
                                   Opinion by Justice Evans
       When the reporter’s record in this case had not been timely filed, we sent appellant a

letter, dated April 23, 2014, advising him that we would submit the appeal without a reporter’s

record unless appellant provided documentation that he had (1) requested preparation of the

reporter’s record and (2) paid or made arrangements to pay for the reporter’s fee or had been

found to be entitled to proceed without payment of costs. Appellant did not provide the required

documentation.

       On May 9, 2014, we ordered the case submitted without a reporter’s record and ordered

appellant to file his brief on or before June 8, 2014. We cautioned appellant that the failure to

file a brief would result in this appeal being dismissed without further notice. To date, appellant

has not filed a brief or otherwise corresponded with this Court regarding the status of his appeal.
        Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal for want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P.

38.8(a)(1); 42.3(b), (c).
