On March 3, 2005, we notified the parties that the appeal would be dismissed for want of prosecution unless arrangements were made for filing the record or the appellant explained why he needed time for filing the record. The appellant requested and received an extension of time to file the record, but did not make payment arrangements for preparation of the record. It appears that the appellant is not entitled to proceed without payment of costs. Tex. R. App. P. 20.2. There being no satisfactory explanation for the failure to file the record, the appeal is dismissed for want of prosecution. Tex. R. App. P. 37.3(b).

APPEAL DISMISSED.
