Opinion
TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN
NO. 03-11-00568-CR
Warren Steed Jeffs, Appellant
v.
The State of Texas, Appellee
FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF SCHLEICHER COUNTY, 51ST JUDICIAL DISTRICT
NO. 1061, THE HONORABLE BARBARA L. WALTHER, JUDGE PRESIDING
M E M O R A N D U M O P I N I O N
Appellant Warren Steed Jeffs was convicted by a jury of the offenses of aggravated sexual assault of a child and sexual assault of a child. See Tex. Penal Code Ann. §§ 22.011, 22.021 (West 2011). Punishment was assessed at confinement for life and twenty years, respectively, in the Institutional Division of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. See id. §§ 12.32, 12.33 (West 2011). Jeffs filed a pro se notice of appeal from these judgments.
The clerk's record and reporter's record were due for filing in this Court by December 7, 2011. Neither was filed. By letter, the district clerk's office advised the Clerk of this Court that appellant has neither filed a written designation specifying the matters to be included in the clerk's record nor made arrangements for payment of the record with the clerk's office. See Tex. R. App. P. 35.3(a). On January 12, 2012, this Court notified Jeffs that he had neither paid, nor made arrangements to pay, for the clerk's record and that his failure to do so meant the clerk's record would not be timely filed. We informed Jeffs that his appeal may be dismissed for want of prosecution if he did not make arrangements for payment of the record and submit a status report regarding this appeal on or before January 23, 2012. To date, Jeffs has not responded to this Court's notice, and the clerk's record has not been filed.
We dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution. See Tex. R. App. P. 37.3(b).
