On September 12, 2012, when the fees remained unpaid, this court ordered appellants to provide written proof to this court not later than September 27, 2012, that either (1) the $175.00 and $10.00 filing fees have been paid, or (2) the parties are entitled to appeal without paying the filing fees. See id. We warned appellants that if they failed to respond as ordered, the appeal would be dismissed. See id. R. 42.3.

To date, appellants have not filed any response with this court. Therefore, we dismiss this appeal for want of prosecution. See id. R. 37.3(b), 42.3(c). Costs of this appeal are taxed against appellants. See id. R. 43.4.
