DISMISSED FOR WANT OF PROSECUTION

On July 22, 2002, this court notified the trial court clerk that the clerk's record was late. The trial court clerk responded to our notice by stating that the clerk's record was not filed because: (1) appellant had failed to pay or make arrangements to pay the clerk's fee for preparing the record and that appellant is not entitled to appeal without paying the fee; and (2) no final judgment or order has been submitted and finalized. On July 30, 2002, we ordered appellant to provide written proof to this court that : (A) either (1) the clerk's fee has been paid or arrangements have been made to pay the clerk's fee; or (2) appellant is entitled to appeal without paying the clerk's fee; and (B) a final judgment or order has been entered by the trial court. (1) We stated that if appellant failed to respond within the time provided, this appeal would be dismissed for want of prosecution. See Tex. R. App. P. 37.3(b). Appellant has not responded to our prior order. This appeal is dismissed for want of prosecution. See Tex. R. App. P. 37.3(b). Costs of appeal are taxed against appellant. PER CURIAM
