IN THE INTEREST OF A.C.N AND S.B.N.
From the 166th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas
Trial Court No. 2013-PA-02274
Honorable Solomon Casseb, III, Judge Presiding
ORDER
This is an accelerated appeal from the trial court's judgment. The clerk's record was due November 18, 2013, but was not filed. On November 22, 2013, the clerk filed a notification of late record stating the clerk's record was not filed because appellant has not paid or made arrangements to pay the clerk's fee to prepare the record and appellant is not entitled to the record without paying the fee.
We ordered appellant to provide written proof to this court that either (1) the clerk's fee has been paid or arrangements satisfactory to the clerk have been made to pay the clerk's fee; or (2) appellant is entitled to the clerk's record without prepayment of the clerk's fee. See TEX. R. APP. P. 20.1; 35.3(a). We advised that if appellant failed to file such proof within the time provided, this appeal would be dismissed for want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 37.3(b).
On December 2, 2013, appellant provided this court with a copy of a receipt reflecting proof of payment for the clerk's record. According, we ORDER the district clerk to file the clerk's record in this court on or before December 16, 2013. Appellant is advised that because there is no reporter's record, the appellant's brief will be due twenty (20) days after the date the clerk's record is filed in this court.
We order the clerk of this court to serve a copy of this order on all counsel and the district clerk.
