On September 17, 2002, appellant was given notice in accordance with Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(c) that this cause was subject to dismissal. To date, no response has been received from appellant.

The Court, having examined and fully considered the documents on file, appellant=s failure to comply with the Rules of Appellate Procedure, and appellant=s failure to respond to this Court=s notice, is of the opinion that the appeal should be dismissed. The appeal is hereby DISMISSED.
