HAGHNAZARI, §
Appeal from the
Appellants, §
417th District Court
v. §
of Collin County, Texas
DREES CUSTOM HOMES, L.P. AND §
THE DREES COMPANY, (TC# 417-00816-2014)
§
Appellees.
MEMORANDUM OPINION
This appeal is before the Court on its own motion for determination of whether it should
be dismissed for want of prosecution. Finding that Appellants, Feysal A. Ghaffari and Irana
Haghnazari, have failed to pay the case filing fee, we dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution.
The trial court dismissed Appellants’ suit for want of prosecution and Appellants filed a
timely notice of appeal. Appellants did not, however, pay the case filing fee of $195 or establish
they are indigent in accordance with TEX.R.APP.P. 20.1. On April 23, 2015, the Clerk of the
Court sent Appellants a letter notifying them that the case filing fee had not been paid and failure
to pay it within twenty days could result in dismissal of the appeal for want of prosecution
pursuant to TEX.R.APP.P. 42.3(b) and (c). Appellants have not paid the filing fee. We therefore
dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution.
