The notice of appeal was filed December 2, 2016. To date, our records show that appellant has not paid the appellate filing fee. See Tex. R. App. P. 5 (requiring payment of fees in civil cases unless party is excused by statute or by appellate rules from paying costs); Tex. Gov’t Code Ann. § 51.207 (West 2013). On January 12, 2017, this court ordered appellant to pay the appellate filing fee on or before January 23, 2017, or the appeal would be dismissed. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(c) (allowing involuntary dismissal of case because appellant has failed to comply with notice from clerk requiring response or other action within specified time). Appellant has not paid the appellate filing fee. The clerk responsible for preparing the record in this appeal informed the court appellant did not make arrangements to pay for the record. On January 20, 2017, the court notified all parties of the court’s intention to dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution unless, within fifteen days, appellant paid or made arrangements to pay for the record and provided this court with proof of payment. See Tex. R. App. P. 37.3(b). Appellant has not provided the required proof, and the clerk’s record has not been filed. Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed.
