In The Court of Appeals Sixth Appellate District of Texas at Texarkana No. 06-18-00100-CV ESTATE OF HOWARD JEFFERSON, JR. On Appeal from the County Court at Law Bowie County, Texas Trial Court No. 41,896-CCL Before Morriss, C.J., Moseley and Burgess, JJ. Memorandum Opinion by Justice Burgess MEMORANDUM OPINION Rosie Jefferson, Roselyn Jefferson, and Demetra Wysinger, appellants, filed a notice of appeal in this matter on October 26, 2018. Appellants have not filed a docketing statement in accordance with Rule 32.1 of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure. See TEX. R. APP. P. 32.1. Further, appellants have not tendered the mandatory $205.00 filing fee associated with the appeal, see TEX. R. APP. P. 5, and have not filed proof of indigency in lieu of a filing fee, see TEX. R. APP. P. 20.1. “A party who is not excused by statute or these rules from paying costs must pay—at the time an item is presented for filing—whatever fees are required by statute or Supreme Court order. The appellate court may enforce this rule by any order that is just.” TEX. R. APP. P. 5. By letter dated November 20, 2018, the appellants were provided with notice of and an opportunity to cure these defects. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(b), (c). The clerk’s letter further warned appellants that if they did not submit an adequate response to the notice by November 30, 2018, this appeal would be subject to dismissal for want of prosecution and for failure to comply with the above-cited Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure. The appellants did not file a docketing statement, did not pay the mandatory filing fee, and did not file proof of indigency in lieu of a filing fee. We have received no communication from the appellants responsive to the November 20 correspondence. Accordingly, this appeal is ripe for dismissal. 2 Pursuant to Rule 42.3, subsections (b) and (c), of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure, we dismiss this appeal for want of prosecution. Ralph K.
