Heliodoro Camejo v. State

Opinion

IN THE TENTH COURT OF APPEALS

No. 10-11-00265-CR

HELIODORO CAMEJO, Appellant v.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

From the County Court Bosque County, Texas Trial Court No. 18368

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Heliodoro Camejo, who is pro se and not indigent, is appealing a county-court

conviction for speeding, according to his document entitled “statement of facts,” which

we have initially treated as a notice of appeal. Since the filing of this putative appeal,

Camejo has had no contact with this Court. Camejo has not responded to this Court’s

letter requesting him to clarify if he is appealing to this Court. Camejo also has not filed

the docketing statement, despite our letter directing him to do so.

Most importantly, the clerk’s record has not been filed because Camejo has failed to pay or make arrangements to pay the clerk’s fee for preparation of the record (he also

has failed to pay or make arrangements to pay the reporter’s fee for preparation of the

reporter’s record), and we notified Camejo that we might dismiss this case for want of

prosecution for this failure.

Camejo has completely failed in his duty to prosecute this appeal, to contact this

Court, and to take any further action toward prosecuting this appeal. We conclude that

Camejo does not desire to prosecute this appeal. Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal,

under our inherent authority, for want of prosecution. See Peralta v. State, 82 S.W.3d

724, 725 (Tex. App.—Waco 2002, no pet.).
