                             MEMORANDUM OPINION
                Before Chief Justice Wright, and Justices Lang-Miers and Brown
                                Opinion by Chief Justice Wright
       Both the filing fee and the clerk’s record in this case are overdue. By postcard dated June

21, 2013, we notified appellant the $175 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 August 29, 2013, 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. See TEX. R. APP. P. 37.3(b); 42.3(b), (c).
