Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam

Appellant, R.S.^[1], perfected an appeal from a judgment entered by the 36th District Court of San Patricio County, Texas, in cause number S-09-5052-FL-A.  On June 15, 2010, the Clerk of this Court notified appellant that the clerk's record in the above cause was originally due on March 5, 2010, and that the deputy district clerk, Ernestina Roblez, had notified this Court that appellant failed to make arrangements for payment of the clerk's record.  The Clerk of this Court notified appellant of this defect so that steps could be taken to correct the defect, if it could be done.  See Tex. R. App. P. 37.3, 42.3(b),(c).   Appellant was advised that, if the defect was not corrected within ten days from the date of receipt of this notice, the appeal would be dismissed for want of prosecution.  Appellant failed to respond to the Court=s notices. 

The Court, having considered the documents on file, is of the opinion that the appeal should be dismissed for want of prosecution.  See id. 37.3, 42.3(b),(c).  Accordingly, the appeal is DISMISSED for want of prosecution.  Any pending motions are dismissed as moot.
