On October 29, 2008, we ordered appellant to either (1) pay the applicable filing fee in

this appeal or (2) provide written proof to this court that appellant is excused by statute or these

rules from paying the filing fee on or before November 28, 2008. See TEX. R. APP. P. 20.1

(providing that party who qualifies as indigent under rule 20 may proceed without advance

payment of costs). We warned that if appellant failed to respond within the time provided, this

appeal would be dismissed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(c).

To date appellant has failed to pay the filing fee or provide written proof that he is

excused from paying the filing fee. We, therefore, dismiss this appeal. See id.
