                         ASHELYE VINGEO, Appellee

                    On Appeal from the 505th District Court
                            Fort Bend County, Texas
                     Trial Court Cause No. 13-DCV-204380

                          MEMORANDUM OPINION

      This appeal is from an order signed January 23, 2023. The notice of appeal
was filed February 14, 2023. No clerk’s record has been filed. The clerk responsible
for preparing the record in this appeal informed the court appellant did not make
arrangements to pay for the record.

      On March 27, 2023, notification was transmitted to appellant that the appeal
was subject to dismissal without further notice unless, within fifteen days, appellant
made arrangements to pay for the record and provided this court with proof of
payment. See Tex. R. App. P. 37.3(b). No response was filed to that notice.

      On April 18, 2023, appellant was ordered to demonstrate he had made
arrangements to pay for the clerk’s record on or before April 28, 2023. In the order,
the court notified appellant that failure to comply with that requirement would leave
the appeal subject to dismissal without further notice for want of prosecution.
Appellant has not filed any response demonstrating he has made arrangements to
pay for the record. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(c)
(allowing involuntary dismissal of case because appellant has failed to comply with
notice from clerk requiring response or other action within specified time).

                                  PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Chief Justice Christopher and Justices Zimmerer and Poissant.
