                   Before Justices Tijerina, Silva, and Peña
                   Memorandum Opinion by Justice Peña

      On April 24, 2023, appellant filed a notice of appeal. On May 1, 2023, the Clerk of

the Court notified appellant that her notice of appeal was not in compliance with the Texas

Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.5(e) and (e)(2). See TEX. R. APP. P. 9.5(e), (e)(2).
Appellant was asked to remit the $205.00 filing fee within ten days from the date of the

notice.

          Furthermore, on June 13, 2023, the Clerk of the Court again notified appellant of

the defects and that she was delinquent in remitting a $205.00 filing fee. The Clerk of this

Court notified appellant the appeal was subject to dismissal if the notice of appeal was

not amended or if the filing fee was not paid within ten days from the date of the

notice. See id. R. 42.3(b), (c).

          Appellant has not cured the defective notice of appeal, paid the filing fee, nor

otherwise responded to the notices from the clerk requiring a response or other action

within the time specified; accordingly, the appeal is dismissed for want of

prosecution. See id.

                                                               L. ARON PEÑA JR.
                                                               Justice

Delivered and filed on the
3rd day of August, 2023.
