On December 1, 2005, we notified the parties that the appeals would be dismissed for want of prosecution unless arrangements were made for filing the records or the appellant explained why he needed time for filing the records. The appellant did not file a response. 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 records, the appeals are dismissed for want of prosecution. Tex. R. App. P. 37.3(b).

APPEALS DISMISSED.
