TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN
NO. 03-96-00195-CV
In the Matter of J. M.
FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF TRAVIS COUNTY, 98TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT
NO. J-13,594, HONORABLE W. JEANNE MEURER, JUDGE PRESIDING
PER CURIAM
Appellant filed a motion to dismiss the appeal. We grant the motion. Tex. R. App. P. 59(a)(1). We note that appellant perfected appeal by a "Notice of Appeal," which is not a correct perfecting instrument in a civil case. Although the appeal is dismissed before appellant has substituted a correct perfecting instrument, inasmuch as he has not shown he is indigent, the filing fee for the transcript remains due.
Before Justices Powers, Jones and B. A. Smith
