Honorable David J. Rodriguez, Judge Presiding
PER CURIAM
Sitting: Catherine Stone, Chief Justice
Karen Angelini, Justice
Marialyn Barnard, Justice
Delivered and Filed: February 1, 2012
DISMISSED
When appellant Alexander Molina filed this appeal, he was required to pay a $175.00
filing fee. See TEX. GOV=T CODE ANN. §§ 51.207(b)(1), 51.941(a) (West 2005); id. §§ 51.208,
51.0051 (West Supp. 2011); TEXAS SUPREME COURT ORDER REGARDING FEES CHARGED IN
CIVIL CASES IN THE SUPREME COURT AND THE COURTS OF APPEALS AND BEFORE THE JUDICIAL
PANEL ON MULTIDISTRICT LITIGATION (Misc. Docket No. 07-9138, Aug. 28, 2007) § B.1.(a).
Appellant did not pay the required filing fee when he filed his notice of appeal. Accordingly, the
04-11-00855-CV
clerk of this court notified appellant by letter dated December 2, 2011, that his notice of appeal
was conditionally filed and the filing fee was due no later than December 12, 2011. On
December 30, 2011, when the fee remained unpaid, this court ordered that appellant must, not
later than January 9, 2012, either (1) pay the applicable filing fee, or (2) provide written proof to
this court that he is indigent or otherwise excused by statute or the Texas Rules of Appellate
Procedure from paying the fee. See TEX. R. APP. P. 5 (“A party who is not excused by statute or
these rules from paying costs must pay B at the time an item is presented for filing B whatever
fees are required by statute or Supreme Court order. The appellate court may enforce this rule by
any order that is just.”). The court advised appellant that if he failed to respond satisfactorily
within the time ordered, the appeal would be dismissed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3.
The filing fee has not been paid, and appellant has not provided a satisfactory response to
our December 30, 2011 order. We therefore order this appeal dismissed for want of prosecution.
We further order appellant to bear all costs of this appeal.
