                NO. 259,554, HONORABLE ORLINDA NARANJO, JUDGE PRESIDING



                               MEMORANDUM OPINION


                Because appellant Omar Sosa has neither paid nor made arrangements to pay for the

clerk=s record, we will dismiss this appeal for want of prosecution. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(b), (c).

                The Clerk of this Court filed appellant=s notice of appeal on October 25, 2002. On

November 22, 2002, the Clerk of this Court received notice from the county clerk=s office of Travis County

that appellant had neither paid for nor made arrangements to pay for the clerk=s record.

                By letter dated November 25, 2002, appellant was requested to submit a status report

regarding this appeal by December 6, 2002, and was informed that failure to respond to this request would

result in the appeal being dismissed for want of prosecution. To date, appellant has failed to respond to this

request.
               Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution. See id. 42.3(b), (c).
