GEORGE E. DIXON, Appellant
V.
FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION, AS RECEIVER FOR
WASHINGTON MUTUAL BANK, Appellee
On Appeal from the 122nd Judicial District Court
Galveston County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 11-CV-0690
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Appellant, George E. Dixon, proceeding pro se, has neither paid the required
filing fee nor established indigence for purposes of appellate costs. See TEX. R.
APP. P. 5, 20.1; see also TEX. GOV’T CODE ANN. §§ 51.207, 51.208, 51.941(a),
101.041(1) (West 2013), § 101.0411 (West Supp. 2014); Order Regarding Fees
Charged in the Supreme Court, in Civil Cases in the Courts of Appeals, and Before
the Judicial Panel on Multi-District Litigation, Misc. Docket No. 13-9127 (Tex.
Aug. 16, 2013). Furthermore, appellant has failed to timely file his appellate brief.
See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.6(a), 38.8(a)(1). After being notified by the Clerk of this
Court on November 5, 2014, that his appeal was subject to dismissal for failure to
pay the filing fee, and again on January 21, 2015, that his appeal was subject to
dismissal for failure to timely file his appellate brief, appellant failed to timely
respond to either notice. See TEX. R. APP. P. 5, 38.8(a)(1), 42.3(c).
Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for nonpayment of the required fee and
for want of prosecution for failure to timely file a brief. See TEX. R. APP. P. 5,
38.8(a)(1), 42.3(b), (c). We dismiss any pending motions as moot.
PER CURIAM
Panel consists of Justices Jennings, Higley, and Huddle.
