BRITTANY BARNETT D/B/A B-N-B BAIL BONDS, APPELLANT v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, APPELLEE
On Appeal from the 287th District Court Bailey County, Texas
Trial Court No. 9708, Honorable Gordon Houston Green, Presiding
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before QUINN, C.J., and CAMPBELL and PIRTLE, JJ.
Appellant Brittany Barnett d/b/a B-N-B Bail Bonds filed a notice of appeal on September 8, 2017. The clerk's record was due on October 5. However, on September 27, the district clerk notified the Court that Barnett had not paid or made arrangements to pay for the clerk's record. See TEX. R. APP. P. 35.3(a)(2). By letter of September 28, we directed Barnett to make acceptable payment arrangements for the clerk's record, or, if she could not afford to pay for the record, to file a statement of inability to afford payment of court costs in the trial court in accordance with Rule 145 of the Texas Rules of Civil Procedure. Failure to do so by October 9, we admonished, would subject the appeal to dismissal for want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 37.3(b).
To date, Barnett has not made payment arrangements for the clerk's record or filed any response to the Court's letter. Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed for want of prosecution and Barnett's failure to comply with a requirement of the appellate rules and an order of the Court. TEX. R. APP. P. 37.3(b); 42.3(b), (c).
