DISMISSED FOR WANT OF PROSECUTION

           On August 12, 2013, appellant filed a notice of appeal from the trial court’s judgment

signed July 11, 2013. The record was due September 9, 2013, sixty days after the judgment was

signed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 35.1. On September 17, 2013, the District Clerk of Bexar County

filed a notification stating the clerk’s record would not be filed because appellant had not paid or

made arrangements to pay the clerk’s fee to prepare the record and is not entitled to appeal without

paying the fee. On September 19, 2013, we ordered appellant to provide written proof to this court

on or before September 30, 2013, that either (1) the clerk’s fee has been paid or arrangements had
                                                                                     04-13-00561-CV

been made to pay the clerk’s fee; or (2) he is entitled to appeal without paying the clerk’s fee. We

cautioned appellant that if he failed to respond within the time provided, his appeal would be

dismissed for want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 37.3(b). Appellant has not filed a response.

       We therefore order this appeal dismissed for want of prosecution. We further order that

appellees, Rushmore Loan Services, L.L.C., USA Residential Properties, L.L.C., and Harvey Law

Group a/k/a Kelly Harvey P.C., recover their costs in this appeal from appellant.
