This case involves an appeal from a trial court’s imposition of community supervision for terroristic threat entered on April 9, 2018, 2015. See TEX. PENAL CODE ANN. § 22.07. Appellant filed his notice of appeal on May 4, 2018. See TEX. R. APP. P. 26.2. The record was due on August 7, 2018. See TEX. R. APP. P. 4.1(a), 35.2. The clerk’s record was filed on May 21, 2018.

On August 10, 2018, the Clerk notified appellant that the court reporter responsible for preparing the record in this appeal had informed the Court that appellant had not requested preparation of the record or had not made arrangements to pay for the reporter’s record.

See TEX. R. APP. P. 37.3(c).
