See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3. Pursuant to Rule 32.1, Appellant s docketing statement was due to have been filed at the time the appeal was perfected, i.e., January 11, 2013. See TEX. R. APP. P. 32.1. Because Appellant did not file his docketing statement at that time, this court requested by letter dated January 18, 2013, that he file his docketing statement within ten days if he had not already done so. Appellant did not file the docketing statement as requested. On February 1, 2013, the court notified Appellant that the appeal would be dismissed on or before February 11, 2013, unless he filed the required docketing statement. See TEX. R. APP. P. 32.1. The February 11, 2013 deadline has passed, and Appellant has not complied with the court s request. Because Appellant has failed, after notice, to comply with Rule 32.1, the appeal is dismissed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(c). Opinion delivered February 21, 2013. Panel consisted of Worthen, C.J., Griffith, J., and Hoyle, J.
