                          MEMORANDUM OPINION

      On April 3, 2014, we notified the parties that the appeal would be dismissed

for want of prosecution unless arrangements were made for filing the record or the

appellant explained why additional time was needed to file the record. On April 21,

2014, we notified the parties that the appeal would be dismissed unless the

appellant remitted the filing fee for the appeal. Appellant did not respond to this

Court’s notices.

      Appellant did not file an affidavit of indigence on appeal and has not shown

that she is entitled to proceed without payment of costs. See Tex. R. App. P. 20.1.

There being no satisfactory explanation for the failure to pay the filing fee for the

                                         1
appeal, and there being no satisfactory explanation for the failure to file the clerk’s

record, we dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution. See Tex. R. App. P. 37.3(b);

Tex. R. App. P. 42.3.

      APPEAL DISMISSED.
