                             MEMORANDUM OPINION
                Before Chief Justice Wright, Justice Brown, and Justice Stoddart
                                  Opinion by Justice Stoddart
       The filing fee, docketing statement, and clerk’s record in this case are past due. By

postcard dated October 15, 2014, we notified appellant the $195 filing fee was due. We directed

appellant to remit the filing fee within ten days and expressly cautioned appellant that failure to

do so would result in dismissal of the appeal. Also by postcard dated October 15, 2014, we

notified appellant the docketing statement had not been filed in this case. We directed appellant

to file the docketing statement within ten days. We cautioned appellant that failure to do so

might result in dismissal of this appeal. By letter dated December 30, 2014, we informed

appellant the clerk’s record had not been filed because appellant had not paid for or made

arrangements to pay for the clerk’s record. We directed appellant to provide verification of

payment or arrangements to pay for the clerk’s record or written documentation that appellant

had been found to be entitled to proceed without payment of costs. We cautioned appellant that

failure to do so would result in the dismissal of this appeal without further notice. To date,
appellant has not paid the filing fee, filed the docketing statement, provided the required

documentation, or otherwise corresponded with the Court regarding the status of this appeal.

       Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 37.3(b); 42.3(b), (c).
