  MEMORANDUM OPINION

PER CURIAM

            This appeal is being dismissed because Appellant has failed, after notice, to pay or make arrangements to pay the trial court clerk’s fee for preparing the clerk’s record. The clerk’s record was due to have been filed on or before November 30, 2005. On November 28, 2005, the trial court clerk notified this Court in writing that the clerk’s record had not been filed because Appellant had not paid the fee for preparation of the record. The clerk requested an extension of time for filing the clerk’s record, which was granted until December 28, 2005. On November 30, this Court informed Appellant that the clerk’s request for an extension of time to file the record stated that the reason for the delay in filing was due to nonpayment of the required preparation fee. Appellant was further informed that, pursuant to Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure 37.3(b) and 42.3(c), the appeal would be dismissed unless proof of full payment to the clerk was provided on or before December 12, 2005.

            Because Appellant has neither provided proof of full payment or otherwise responded to this Court’s notice, the appeal is dismissed. Tex. R. App. P. 37.3(b), 42.3(c).

Opinion delivered December 14, 2005.

Panel consisted of Worthen, C.J., Griffith, J., and DeVasto, J.
