See Tex. R. App. P. 47.4.

Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 35.3(a)(2). See Tex. R. App. P. 35.3(a)(2).

We stated that we would dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution unless appellants, within fifteen days, made arrangements to pay for the clerk=s record and provided this court with proof of payment.

Because appellants have not provided this court with proof of payment for the clerk=s record, it is the opinion of the court that the appeal should be dismissed for want of prosecution. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 37.3(b), 42.3(b).

Appellants shall pay all costs of the appeal, for which let execution issue.
