MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Justices Lang, Evans, and Whitehill Opinion by Justice Lang

The clerk’s record is past due. By letter dated September 3, 2015, we informed appellant

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

because appellant had not paid for or made arrangements to pay the clerk’s fee for preparing the

record. We directed appellant to provide, within ten days, written verification that payment or

arrangements for payment of the clerk’s fee had been made or written documentation that he had

been found entitled to proceed without payment of costs. We cautioned appellant that if the

Court did not receive the required documentation within the time specified we may dismiss the

appeal without further notice. See TEX. R. APP. P. 37.3(b).

As of today’s date, appellant has not filed a response. Accordingly, we dismiss this

appeal for want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 37.3(b), 42.3(b).
