  KINGWOOD, A DOMESTIC FOR-PROFIT CORPORATION, Appellee

                    On Appeal from the 234th District Court
                            Harris County, Texas
                      Trial Court Cause No. 2022-68307

                          MEMORANDUM OPINION

      This appeal is from a judgment signed August 3, 2023. The notice of appeal
was filed August 31, 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 December 4, 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 demonstrating payment was
filed in response to that notice.

      On December 28, 2023, appellant was ordered to demonstrate he had made
arrangements to pay for the clerk’s record on or before January 8, 2024. In the order,
the court notified appellant that failure to comply with that requirement would leave
the appeal subject to dismissal for want of prosecution without further notice.
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 failed to comply with
notice from clerk requiring response or other action within specified time).

                                    PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Justices Hassan, Poissant, and Wilson.
