Because the appellant failed to pay the applicable clerk’s fee due as a result of the transfer of his action to the proper court, we conclude that the trial court did not abuse its discretion in dismissing the instant action without prejudice pursuant to rule 1.060(c), Florida Rules of Civil Procedure. See, Burke Co. v. United States Tel. Co., 571 So.2d 33 (Fla. 3d DCA 1990).

AFFIRMED.
