MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Garza, Benavides, and Perkes
Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam
Appellant, Emilio Barrientes, filed an appeal from a judgment rendered against him
in the 156th District Court of Bee County. On February 3, 2014, the Clerk of this Court
notified appellant that the clerk's record in the above cause was originally due on January
25, 2014, and that the deputy district clerk, Julissa James, had notified this Court that
appellant failed to make arrangements for payment of the clerk's record. The Clerk of
this Court notified appellant of this defect so that steps could be taken to correct the
defect, if it could be done. See TEX. R. APP. P. 37.3, 42.3(b),(c). Appellant was advised
that, if the defect was not corrected within ten days from the date of receipt of the Court’s
notice, the appeal would be dismissed for want of prosecution.
On February 3, 2014, the Clerk of the Court notified appellant that he was
delinquent in remitting a $195.00 filing fee. The Clerk of this Court notified appellant that
the appeal was subject to dismissal if the filing fee was not paid within ten days from the
date of receipt of this letter. See id. 42.3(b),(c).
Appellant has failed to respond to this Court’s notices and has failed to pay the
filing fee. Accordingly, the appeal is DISMISSED FOR WANT OF PROSECUTION.
See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(b), (c).
