Appellants’ motion to extend the time to file their notice of appeal is granted because
the notice was filed in the trial court on 4/16/15, within the 15-day grace period of the
deadline from the 3/2/15 judgment, and we imply the timely filing of this motion. See
TEX. R. APP. P. 10.5(b), 26.3; Verburgt v. Dorner, 959 S.W.2d 615, 617 (Tex. 1997).
However, because appellant has failed to timely respond to the Clerk’s 5/11/15 late
filing fee notice, this Court may dismiss the appeal without further notice unless this
fee is paid within 10 days of the date of this order. See TEX. R. APP. P. 5, 42.3(c).
