This appeal is before the Court on its own motion to determine whether it should be
dismissed for want of prosecution. Finding that the Appellant has not paid the $205 filing fee or
shown she is excused from paying the filing fee, we dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution.

case filing fee. The letter notified Appellant that failure to pay the case filing fee or a statement of
inability to pay costs 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). As of this date, Appellant has not paid the
