TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN

NO. 03-08-00736-CV

Michiko Watson, Appellant v. Robert Nethery Watson, Appellee

FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF BELL COUNTY, 264TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT NO. 228,420-D, HONORABLE MARTHA TRUDO, JUDGE PRESIDING

MEMORANDUM OPINION

The clerk’s record in this case was due on January 19, 2009. No clerk’s record has been filed due to appellant’s failure to pay or make arrangements to pay the clerk’s fee for preparing the clerk’s record.

If the trial court fails to file the clerk’s record due to appellant’s failure to pay or make arrangements to pay the clerk’s fee for preparing the clerk’s record, the appellate court may dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution unless the appellant was entitled to proceed without payment of costs. Tex. R. App. P. 37.3(b).

Because appellant has failed to pay or make arrangements to pay the clerk’s fee for preparing the clerk’s record, this appeal is dismissed for want of prosecution. __________________________________________ Diane M.
