On August 2, 2006, we notified appellant, in accordance with rule of appellate procedure 42.3(c), that we would dismiss this appeal unless the $125 filing fee was paid.  See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(c).  Appellant has not paid the $125 filing fee.  See Tex. R. App. P. 5, 12.1(b).

Because appellant has failed to comply with a requirement of the rules of appellate procedure and the Texas Supreme Court=s order of July 21, 1998,^[2] we dismiss the appeal.  See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(c), 43.2(f).
