MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Benavides, Tijerina, and Silva Memorandum Opinion by Justice Benavides
On January 30, 2024, appellant filed a notice of appeal. On February 8, 2024,
appellant was asked to remit the $205.00 filing fee within ten days from the date of the
notice. On March 12, 2024, the Clerk of the Court again notified appellant that she was
delinquent in remitting a $205.00 filing fee. The Clerk of this Court notified appellant the
appeal was subject to dismissal if the filing fee was not paid within ten days from the date
of the notice. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(b), (c). Furthermore, the clerk’s record was due on May 9, 2024. On May 9, 2024, the
Clerk of the Court notified appellant that the deputy district clerk, Silvia Mata, informed
the Court that appellant failed to make arrangements for payment of the clerk’s record.
Appellant was notified that unless she made arraignments to pay for the clerk’s record
and proof of payment was provided to the Court within ten days, the appeal was subject
to dismissal for want of prosecution. See id. R. 37.3(b).
Appellant has not paid the filing fee, and no clerk’s record has been filed due to
appellant’s failure to pay or make payment arrangements. Additionally, appellant has
failed to comply with a notice from the Clerk of the Court requiring a response or other
action within the time specified; accordingly, the appeal is dismissed for want of
prosecution. See id. R. 42.3(b), (c).
