                          MEMORANDUM OPINION

      Geert Visser and Global Marine Transport, Inc. appealed from a judgment

signed May 2, 2018. On July 2, 2018, we notified the parties that the clerk’s record

had not been filed due to the appellants’ failure to pay or, to arrange to pay the

District Clerk’s fee for preparing the clerk’s record. Further, the notice warned the

appellants that the appeal would be dismissed for want of prosecution unless they

established that the fee had been paid or additional time was needed. On August 10,

2018, we notified the appellants that the appeal would be dismissed for want of

                                         1
prosecution unless they filed a suggestion of bankruptcy that complies with Texas

Rule of Appellate Procedure 8.1 on or before August 20, 2018. No response has been

filed. Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed for want of prosecution. See Tex. R. App.

P. 37.3(b); see also Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(b), (c).

      APPEAL DISMISSED.
