See TEX. R. CIV. P. 145; TEX. R. APP. P. 34.1. We notified Appellant that his appeal could be dismissed for want of prosecution if the clerk’s record was not filed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 37.3 (a), (b). We directed Appellant to submit written evidence from the trial court clerk by June 26, 2023, reflecting he paid, or made arrangements to pay, the fee for preparing the clerk’s record.
