Appellant, Appeal from

THE CITY OF DALLAS, TEXAS, §

Appellee. §
MEMORANDUM OPINION
This appeal is before the Court on its own motion for determination of whether it should
be dismissed for want of prosecution. Finding that Appellant has failed to pay the case filing fee
and has failed to comply with a notice by the Clerk requiring a response from Appellant, we
dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution.
Appellant filed a notice with the trial court clerk seeking to appeal the judgment of the
trial court, but she did not pay the case filing fee of $195 as required by TEX.R.APP.P. 5 nor did
she establish her indigence in accordance with TEX.R.APP.P. 20.1. On October 28, 2013, the
Clerk of the Court notified Appellant that the filing fee had not been paid and failure to pay it
within twenty days could result in dismissal of the appeal pursuant to TEX.R.APP.P. 42.3(b) and
(c). On November 26, 2013, the Clerk sent a letter to Appellant requesting payment of the filing
fee and advised Appellant that the appeal would be submitted to the Court for dismissal unless
she responded by December 6, 2013. Appellant has not paid the filing fee or otherwise
responded to the Clerk’s inquiries. We therefore dismiss the appeal.
