See TEX. R. APP. P. 5 (allowing enforcement of rule), 37.3(b) (allowing dismissal of appeal if no clerk’s record filed due to appellant’s fault), 42.3(c) (allowing involuntary dismissal of case). No response was received.
We dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(c), 43.2(f). We dismiss all pending motions as moot.
