DESOTO CHAMBER OF COMMERCE, Appellee

On Appeal from the County Court at Law No. 4 Dallas County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. CC-12-05372-D

MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Justices Bridges, Lang, and Schenck Opinion by Justice Bridges Before the Court is appellee’s June 19, 2015 motion to dismiss this appeal for want of

prosecution. Our records show that both the clerk’s and the reporter’s records in this case are

overdue. By order dated January 15, 2015, the Court granted appellants’ second motion to

extend time to pay for the records and ordered appellants to provide proof of payment or

arrangements to pay for the clerk’s and reporter’s records within thirty days. To date, neither the

clerk’s nor the reporter’s record have been filed, appellants have not provided the required proof

of payment or arrangements to pay for the records, and appellants have not responded to

appellee’s motion to dismiss for want of prosecution or otherwise corresponded with the Court

regarding the status of this appeal.

Accordingly, we grant appellee’s motion and dismiss this appeal for want of prosecution.
