MEMORANDUM OPINION
Appellant filed his notice of appeal April 29, 2005. At that time, his $125 filing fee and docketing statement were due. See Appendix to the Tex.R.App.P. B(1)(a); Tex.R.App.P. 5, 32.1, 42.3. In letters dated July 7, 2005, the Court informed appellant that his filing fee had not been paid and his docketing statement had not been filed. The letters instructed appellant to pay his $125 filing fee and file his completed docketing statement within ten days of the date of the letters and cautioned appellant that the failure to pay the fee or file the docketing statement within that time would result in the dismissal of this appeal. Appellant did not respond.
In a second letter dated August 8, 2005, we again informed appellant that he was required to pay the $125 filing fee and file a docketing statement. The letter instructed appellant to pay the filing fee and file a docketing statement by 5:00 p.m. on August 18, 2005. The letter stated the appeal would be dismissed if appellant failed to do so. To date, appellant has not responded.
Accordingly, on the Court's motion, we DISMISS this appeal for want of prosecution. See Appendix to the Tex.R.App.P. B(1)(a); Tex.R.App.P. 5, 32.1, 42.3.
