By postcard dated December 5, 2013, we notified appellant the $195 filing fee was due. We directed appellant to remit the fee within ten days. We cautioned appellant that failure to do so would result in the dismissal of this appeal without further notice. By letter dated January 29, 2014, we informed appellant that we had been notified by the Dallas County District Clerk that the clerk’s record in this case had been prepared but had not been filed because appellant had not paid for or made arrangements to pay for the clerk’s record. We directed appellant to provide the Court with written verification that she had paid for or made arrangements to pay for the clerk’s record or that she had been found entitled to proceed without payment of costs within ten days. We cautioned appellant that if we did not receive the required verification, we might dismiss the appeal without further notice. To date, appellant has not paid the filing fee, provided the required verification, or otherwise corresponded with the Court regarding the status of this appeal. Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal.
