  MEMORANDUM OPINION

Before Justices Yañez, Garza, and Benavides Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam

Appellant, LEXTER KENNON KOSSIE, perfected an appeal from a judgment entered by the 36^th District Court of Bee County, Texas, in cause number B-07-1119-CV-A. Appellant has failed to pay the $125.00 filing fee in this matter.

On June 12, 2007, notice was given to all parties that this appeal was subject to dismissal because of appellant's failure to comply with this Court's previous notice regarding the filing fee in this matter. Appellant was advised that, if the filing fee was not paid within ten days from the date of receipt of this notice, the appeal would be dismissed. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(c). To date, appellant has failed to tender the $125.00 filing fee or otherwise respond to this Court's notice.

The Court, having examined and fully considered the documents on file, appellant's failure to remit the $125.00 filing fee, this Court's notice, and appellant's failure to respond, is of the opinion that the appeal should be dismissed. The appeal is hereby DISMISSED.
