IN THE INTEREST OF K.D.W., A CHILD

On Appeal from the 102nd Judicial District Court

Bowie County, Texas

Trial Court No. 04S0205-102

Before Morriss, C.J., Ross and Carter, JJ.

Memorandum Opinion by Justice Ross

MEMORANDUM OPINION

          Antwan M. Ware filed a notice of appeal December 21, 2005. The district clerk's office informed Ware of the cost of the clerk's record and that the clerk's record would be filed when Ware made arrangements for the payment of such record or established that he was entitled to appeal without paying the fee. See Tex. R. App. P. 35.3(a)(2). Soon thereafter, the Clerk of this Court informed Ware by letter that he was to complete and return a docketing statement on or before January 5, 2006. See Tex. R. App. P. 32.1.

          Having received no other correspondence from Ware, the Clerk of this Court sent Ware a letter dated February 15, 2006, in which Ware was warned that his appeal would be subject to dismissal for want of prosecution if he did not respond by showing good cause for continuing his appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(b), (c). Since that time, Ware still has not contacted this Court with any explanation for his failure to comply with the various Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure.

          Accordingly, we dismiss Ware's appeal for want of prosecution.
