IN THE INTEREST OF D.J.D., A CHILD

----------

FROM THE 233 RD DISTRICT COURT OF TARRANT COUNTY

----------

MEMORANDUM OPINION (footnote: 1) AND JUDGMENT

----------

On March 7, 2006, we notified appellant James T. Dayton, Jr. that the trial court clerk responsible for preparing the record in this appeal informed the court that payment arrangements had not been made to pay for the clerk’s record as required by T EX. R. A PP. P. 35.3(a)(2).  We stated we would dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution unless appellant, within fifteen days, made arrangements to pay for the clerk’s record and provided this court with proof of payment.  

Because appellant has not made payment arrangements for the clerk’s record, it is the opinion of the court that the appeal should be dismissed for want of prosecution.  Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal.   See T EX . R. A PP . P. 37.3(b), 42.3(b).

Appellant shall pay all costs of the appeal, for which let execution issue.

PER CURIAM

PANEL D: LIVINGSTON, DAUPHINOT, and HOLMAN, JJ.
