MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Chief Justice Wright, Justice Lang-Miers, and Justice Stoddart Opinion by Chief Justice Wright The clerk’s record in this case is overdue. By postcard dated June 22, 2016, we informed

appellant that the Dallas County Clerk notified the Court the clerk’s record had not been filed

because appellant had not paid for or made arrangements to pay for the clerk’s record. We

directed appellant to provide, within ten days, verification of payment or arrangements to pay for

the clerk’s record or to provide written documentation that she had been found entitled to

proceed without payment of costs. We cautioned appellant that if she did not file the required

documentation we might dismiss the appeal without further notice. See TEX. R. APP. P. 37.3(b).

To date, appellant has not filed the required documentation or otherwise corresponded with the

Court regarding the status of the clerk’s record. Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal for want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 37.3(b).
