CITY OF HOUSTON., Appellee

On Appeal from the 270th District Court

Harris County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. 0129661

O P I N I O N

According to information provided by the district clerk, this is an appeal from a judgment signed on February 22, 2002. The notice of appeal was filed on March 14, 2002. No postjudgment motions were filed. The Clerk's Record, due to be filed April 23, 2002, is past due. On May 9, 2002, the district clerk informed the Court that appellant had not made arrangements to pay the fee for the preparation of the Clerk's Record. On May 14, 2002, the Clerk of this Court notified appellant's counsel that the clerk responsible for preparing the clerk's record had informed the Court that the appellant had not made arrangements to pay for its preparation, and advised appellant's counsel that the Court could dismiss appellant's appeal if, within 15 days of the May 14, 2002 notice, appellant had not made arrangements to pay for the record. Those 15 days have expired, and appellant has not provided the Court with proof of payment of the fee for the Clerk's Record or that satisfactory arrangements have been made with the district clerk for payment of the fee. See Tex. R. App. P. 35.3(a)(2).

Accordingly, this appeal is dismissed for want of prosecution. See Tex. R. App. P. 37.3(b); 42.3(b), (c).
