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

       Appellant, Steven Barker, perfected an appeal from a judgment rendered against

him in favor of appellee, Straw-K, Inc. d/b/a “A-AArlington Abandoned Vehicle.”        On

November 7, 2012, the Clerk of this Court notified appellant that the clerk's record in the

above cause was originally due on November 6, 2012, and that the deputy district clerk,
Sandy Carter, 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.

       Appellant has failed to respond to this Court’s notice. Accordingly, the appeal is

DISMISSED FOR WANT OF PROSECUTION. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(b), (c).



                                                 PER CURIAM

Delivered and filed the
13th day of December, 2012.
