Before BOYD, C.J., QUINN and REAVIS, JJ.

Ronald Claxton (appellant) attempts to perfect an appeal to this Court.  By letter from this Court dated January 10, 2002, we informed appellant that the filing fee of $125.00 required to perfect this appeal was outstanding and that the failure to pay same could result in the dismissal of his case.  To date, appellant has not paid the $125.00 filing fee as directed.

Due to appellant’s failure to pay the filing fee, we dismiss the appeal pursuant to Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 42.3 (c).
