MEMORANDUM OPINION
On October 16, 2013, the Clerk of the Court sent the following letter to Appellant:
The required filing and fax fees of $20 for your faxed Motion to
Extend Time to File Appellant’s Brief filed on September 24, 2013 are
PAST DUE. See TEX. R. APP. P. 5; Appendix to TEX. R. APP. P., Order
Regarding Fees (Amended Aug. 28, 2007, eff. Sept. 1, 2007). See also 10TH
TEX. APP. (WACO) LOC. R. 5; TEX. GOV’T CODE ANN. §§ 51.207(b); 51.208
(West Supp. 2012); § 51.941(a) (West 2005).
Unless you are exempt, you must: (1) file an indigence affidavit as
provided by Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 20.1; or (2) pay the
required filing and fax fees. See TEX. R. APP. P. 5, 20.1. If you fail either to
file an indigence affidavit or to pay the filing and fax fees within 14 days
after the date of this letter, the motion will be dismissed without further
notification. See TEX. R. APP. P. 5.
You also owe an additional $20 for two previous fax fees that are
PAST DUE.
Fees may be paid by check or money order, payable to the “Tenth
Court of Appeals.”
On November 8, 2013, Appellant paid the required filing and fax fees of $20 for his
Motion to Extend Time to File Appellant’s Brief; however, Appellant continued to owe
$20 for required fax fees that were past due.
On November 27, 2013, the Clerk of the Court sent a letter to Appellant
reminding him of the foregoing. Appellant was also informed that unless he is exempt,
he must: (1) file an indigence affidavit as provided by Texas Rule of Appellate
Procedure 20.1; or (2) pay the required filing and fax fees. See TEX. R. APP. P. 5, 20.1.
Appellant was also notified that if he failed to file an indigence affidavit or to pay the
required filing and fax fees within fourteen days after the date of the letter, this appeal
may be dismissed without further notification. See TEX. R. APP. P. 5, 42.3(c).
More than fourteen days have passed since the November 27 letter, and
Appellant has not filed an indigence affidavit or paid the required filing and fax fees;
accordingly, we dismiss this appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 5, 42.3(c).
