                          MEMORANDUM OPINION
 Before Chief Justice Contreras and Justices Longoria and Hinojosa
             Memorandum Opinion by Justice Hinojosa

       Appellant, Eduardo Barrientos, filed a notice of appeal on February 10, 2020. On

February 27, 2020, the clerk notified appellant no filing fee had been received by the court

and the appeal would be dismissed if a filing fee was not paid within ten days. See TEX.

R. APP. P. 42.3(c). Additionally, on March 9, 2020, the clerk instructed appellant to provide

proof of arrangements or of payment for the trial clerk’s record to the court within ten days
or this appeal is subject to dismissal for want of prosecution. Appellant failed to respond

to either notices, and the court has not received payment of the filing fee.

       The Court, having considered the documents on file and appellant’s failure to pay

the filing fee, is of the opinion the appeal should be dismissed. See id. R. 42.3(b),(c).

Accordingly, the appeal is DISMISSED for want of prosecution.

                                                               LETICIA HINOJOSA
                                                               Justice

Delivered and filed the
30th day of April, 2020.
