MEMORANDUM OPINION

Before Chief Justice Valdez and Justices Garza and Vela Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam

Appellant, Independent Contractors, Inc., appealed a judgment rendered against

it in the 357th District Court of Cameron County, Texas. On February 6, 2008, the Clerk

of this Court notified appellant that the clerk's record in the above cause was originally due

on December 31, 2007, and that the deputy district clerk, Laura Cisneros, had notified this Court that appellant failed to make arrangements for payment of the clerk's record. The

Clerk of this Court notified appellant of this defect so that steps could be taken to correct

the defect, if it could be done. See TEX . R. APP. P. 37.3, 42.3(b),(c). Appellant was

advised that, if the defect was not corrected within ten days from the date of receipt of this

notice, the appeal would be dismissed for want of prosecution. On February 14, 2008, the

Clerk sent appellant a similar notice regarding appellant’s failure to make arrangements

for payment of the reporter’s record. To date, appellant has failed to respond to the Court’s

notices.

The Court, having considered the documents on file and appellant’s failure to

respond to the Court’s notices, is of the opinion that the appeal should be dismissed. See

id. 37.3, 42.3(b),(c). Accordingly, the appeal is DISMISSED.
