signed May 2, 2018. On July 2, 2018, we notified the parties that the clerk’s record

District Clerk’s fee for preparing the clerk’s record. Further, the notice warned the

appellants that the appeal would be dismissed for want of prosecution unless they

established that the fee had been paid or additional time was needed. On August 10,

2018, we notified the appellants that the appeal would be dismissed for want of

1 prosecution unless they filed a suggestion of bankruptcy that complies with Texas
