Appellant filed her notice of appeal on October 28, 2014. The record was therefore due on November 7, 2014. See TEX. R. APP. P. 35.1(b). The clerk’s record was filed on November 7, 2014. The reporter’s record has not been filed. On November 24, 2014, the court reporter notified this Court that appellant had not made arrangements to pay for the reporter’s record. On February 3, 2015, we ordered appellant to provide, within 30 days of our order, proof that she had requested and paid or made arrangements to pay for preparation of the reporter’s record, and we notified her that if she failed to provide such proof we may consider and decide only those issues or points that do not require a reporter’s record. See TEX. R. APP. P. 37.3(c). Appellant has not provided the Court with evidence showing that she has paid or made arrangements to pay the court reporter. Accordingly, the Court will consider and decide those issues or points that do not require a reporter’s record for a decision. See id. Appellant’s brief is ORDERED to be filed within 20 days of the date of this order. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.6(a). Appellee’s brief, if any, is ORDERED to be filed within 20 days of the filing of appellant’s brief. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.6(b).
