EDWARD VINSON, Appellant

V.

SECRETARY OF THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS, AN OFFICER OF THE UNITED STATES, Appellee

On Appeal from County Court at Law No. 1 Tarrant County, Texas Trial Court No. 2025-006361-1

Before Womack, Wallach, and Walker, JJ. Per Curiam Memorandum Opinion MEMORANDUM OPINION AND JUDGMENT

On December 23, 2025, we notified appellant that the trial-court clerk

responsible for preparing the record in this appeal has informed us that appellant has

not arranged to pay for the clerk’s record as the appellate rules require. See Tex. R.

App. P. 35.3(a)(2). In our notice, we warned that we would dismiss the appeal for

want of prosecution unless, by January 2, 2026, appellant arranged to pay for the

clerk’s record and provided us with proof of payment. See Tex. R. App. P. 35.3(c),

37.3(b), 44.3.

Because appellant has not made payment arrangements for the clerk’s record,

we now dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution.1 See Tex. R. App. P. 37.3(b),

42.3(b), 43.2(f).

Appellant must pay all costs of this appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 43.4.
