<P>	<SPAN STYLE="font-family: Times New Roman">Faith Johnson filed a notice of appeal, but has since taken no steps to prosecute this
appeal.  Despite requests by this Court's clerk, she has not paid her filing fees, has not filed a
docketing statement, and has not paid for the preparation of the clerk's record.  </SPAN></P>

<P><SPAN STYLE="font-family: Times New Roman">	By letter dated June 7, 2001, this Court's clerk requested that Johnson either pay for
the record or explain her failure to pay for it; the clerk warned that failure to comply would result
in dismissal of the cause for want of prosecution.  <EM>See</EM> Tex. R. App. P. 42.3.  Johnson has neither
paid for the record, made arrangements to pay, or explained the failure to pay.</SPAN></P>
