American Phoenix Foundation, Appellant v. Steve Bresnen, Appellee
MEMORANDUM OPINION
The appellate record must include the clerk's record from the trial court.1 The clerk's record in this cause was due in this Court on August 16, 2016, but no record was filed. We received notice from the Travis County district clerk's office that appellant has neither paid for nor made arrangement for payment of the record. Under these circumstances, this Court may dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution.2
On August 22, 2016, we sent notice to appellant that the clerk's record was overdue and that the appeal may be dismissed for want of prosecution if appellant did not make arrangements for the record and submit a status report to this Court on or before September 1, 2016. To date, appellant has not responded in any way and the clerk's record has not been filed. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution.3
