Order entered September 12, 2014
In The
Court of Appeals
Fifth District of Texas at Dallas
No. 05-14-01091-CV
MELISSA HYATT, Appellant
V.
MICHAEL REIGHLEY, Appellee
On Appeal from the 256th Judicial District Court
Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. DF-03-10926-T
ORDER
Before the Court is appellant’s September 9, 2014 motion to extend time to pay the filing
fee. Appellant asserts in her motion that she is “unable to acquire” the necessary funds, but she
does not seek to proceed as indigent in accordance with Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 20.1.
See TEX. R. APP. P. 20.1. Instead, she seeks the extension so that her parents may loan her the
money. We GRANT the motion and ORDER appellant to pay the filing fee, or show she is
excused by statute or these rules from paying costs, no later than October 13, 2014. See id. 5.
Appellant is cautioned that failure to pay the fee or make the required showing may result in
dismissal of the appeal without further notice. See id. 5, 42.3.
