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

April 28, 2017, we informed appellant the docketing statement in this case was due. We

cautioned appellant that failure to file the docketing statement within ten days might result in the

dismissal of this appeal without further notice. By letter dated June 21, 2017, we notified

appellant the court reporter had informed the Court that the reporter’s record had not been filed

because appellant had not requested the record or paid for or made arrangements to pay for the

record. We directed appellant to file certain written verifications within ten days or we might

order the appeal submitted without a reporter’s record. Appellant has not responded to our June

21, 2017 letter. Finally, by letter dated June 23, 2017, we informed appellant the clerk’s record

had not been filed because appellant had not paid for the clerk’s record. We directed appellant to

provide verification of payment or arrangements to pay for the clerk’s record or to provide
written documentation he had been found entitled to proceed without payment of costs within ten

days. We cautioned appellant that failure to do so would result in the dismissal of this appeal

without further notice. To date, appellant has not filed his 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).
