Appellants

Appellees

Before QUINN, C.J., and CAMPBELL and HANCOCK, JJ.

Appellants Kyle Zahn, Amy Zahn, Zahn Enterprises, Inc., Rick Denzer filed a notice of appeal on August 24, 2006. However, they did not pay the $125 filing fee required from appellants under Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 5. Nor did they file an affidavit of indigence per Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 20.1. By letter from this Court dated August 31, 2006, we informed appellants that "the filing fee in the amount of $125.00 has not been paid" and that the "[f]ailure to pay the filing fee within ten (10) days from the date of this notice may result in a dismissal." Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(c); see Holt v. F. F. Enterprises, 990 S.W.2d 756 (Tex. App.-Amarillo 1998, pet. ref'd). The deadline lapsed, and the fee was not paid.

Because appellants failed to pay the requisite filing fee as directed by the court, we dismiss the appeal pursuant to Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 42.3(c).
