ordered Ms. Wright to file within either (1) the reporter’s record; (2) written verification no

hearings were recorded; or (3) written verification that appellant has not paid for or made

arrangements to pay for the reporter’s record within ten days. In that order, we expressly cautioned Ms. Wright that failure to comply with the order would result in the Court taking such

actions as necessary to have her comply with the Court’s orders, including an order that she not

sit as a court reporter until she complied. To date, Ms. Wright has not complied with the Court’s

order nor otherwise communicated with the Court regarding the status of the reporter’s record in
