                         MEMORANDUM OPINION
       Before Chief Justice Valdez and Justices Garza and Perkes
                   Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam

      Appellant, Joe Landry, filed an appeal from a judgment rendered against him in

favor of appellee, Ventura Gobellan Jr.. On August 5, 2013, the Clerk of this Court

notified appellant that the clerk's record in the above cause was originally due on August

1, 2013, and that the deputy district clerk, Sharon Mathis, had notified this Court that

appellant failed to make arrangements for payment of the clerk's record. The Clerk of
this Court notified appellant of this defect so that steps could be taken to correct the

defect, if it could be done.    See TEX. R. APP. P. 37.3, 42.3(b),(c).        Appellant was

advised that, if the defect was not corrected within ten days from the date of receipt of this

notice, the appeal would be dismissed for want of prosecution.

       On July 23, 2013, and August 5, 2013, the Clerk of the Court notified appellant that

he was delinquent in remitting a $175.00 filing fee. The Clerk of this Court notified

appellant that the appeal was subject to dismissal if the filing fee was not paid within ten

days from the date of receipt of the letter. See id. 42.3(b),(c).

       Appellant has failed to respond to this Court’s notices and has failed to pay the

filing fee. Accordingly, the appeal is DISMISSED FOR WANT OF PROSECUTION.

See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(b), (c).



                                                  PER CURIAM

Delivered and filled the
5th day of September, 2013.
