HILLIARD ENERGY, LTD.
V.
GOTEC LAND SERVICES, INC.
On Appeal from the 142nd District Court
Midland County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. CV-46,700
M E M O R A N D U M O P I N I O N
This is an appeal from a final judgment signed on December 17, 2010. Appellant, Hilliard Energy, Ltd., has timely filed a notice of appeal. However, neither a clerk’s record nor a reporter’s record have been filed. We dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution.
The clerk of the trial court and the court reporter have notified this court that appellant has neither filed a written designation specifying the matters to be included in the clerk’s record or the reporter’s record nor made arrangements to pay for the clerk’s record or the reporter’s record. On April 25, 2011, the clerk of this court wrote appellant and requested that it forward proof that it has filed a designation of the clerk’s record and reporter’s record and made arrangements to pay for the clerk’s record and reporter’s record by May 6, 2011. The clerk’s letter of April 25 additionally informed appellant that the failure to provide the requested proof by the date indicated could result in the dismissal of this appeal. There has been no response to the clerk’s letter of April 25.
The failure to file the clerk’s record and reporter’s record appears to be due to appellant’s acts and omissions. Therefore, pursuant to Tex. R. App. P. 37.3(b) and 42.3(b), the appeal is dismissed for want of prosecution.
