Because appellant has neither paid for nor made arrangements to pay for the clerk's record, we will dismiss this appeal for want of prosecution. See Tex. R. App. P. 35.3(a)(2).

The Clerk of this Court filed Appellant's Notice of Appeal on October 25, 1999. Notice was received from the Travis County clerk's office on December 6, 1999, that the clerk's record had not been paid for, nor had arrangements been made.

By letter dated January 10, 2000, appellant's attorney was requested to submit a status report regarding this matter by January 25, 2000, or this appeal may be dismissed for want of prosecution. Thus far, appellant has failed to respond to this request.

Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution on our own motion. See id. 42.3(b).
