The reporter’s record in this appeal was due July 10, 2017, but it was not filed. On July 14, 2017, this court notified the court reporter the record was late. The court reporter responded to our notice by stating that the record was not filed because (1) appellant has not made a written request for a reporter’s record and (2) appellant has not paid or made arrangements to pay the reporter’s fee to prepare the record and is not entitled to the record without paying the fee. See T EX . R. A PP . P. 34.6(b), 35.3(b).

We order appellant to provide written proof to this court on or before July 31, 2017 that (1) he has requested a reporter’s record and (2) either (a) the reporter’s fee has been paid or arrangements satisfactory to the reporter have been made to pay the reporter’s fee or (b) appellant is entitled to the record without prepayment of the reporter’s fee. See T EX . R. A PP . P. 20.2; 34.6(b)(1); 35.3(b). If appellant fails to respond within the time provided, the court will only consider those issues or points raised in appellant’s brief that do not require a reporter’s record for a decision. See T EX . R. A PP . P. 37.3(c).
