Appellees

From the 18th District Court Johnson County, Texas

Trial Court No. C201100001

MEMORANDUM OPINION

The Clerk of this Court notified Appellant Charles Michael Forrest1 by letter dated June 21, 2011 that the original filing fee of $175.00 had not been paid and that if the fee was not paid or an indigence affidavit was not filed within 14 days, the appeal would be dismissed. More than 14 days have passed, and the fee has not been paid and an indigence affidavit has not been filed.

1 In a prior order, the Court dismissed this appeal as to Appellant Forrest Cleburne Properties, L.P. Furthermore, by letter dated June 15, 2011, the Clerk notified Appellant Charles Michael Forrest that the clerk’s record in the above cause had apparently not been filed because Appellant had failed to pay or make arrangements to pay the clerk’s fee for preparation of the record. Appellant was further notified that if he desired to proceed with this appeal, he must pay or make arrangements to pay the clerk’s fee and notify this Court of the actions taken within 21 days after the date of this letter. Appellant was warned that if he failed to do so, this appeal might be dismissed for want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 37.3(b). More than 21 days have passed, and we have not been notified that Appellant has paid or made arrangements to pay the clerk’s fee.

Accordingly, this appeal is dismissed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 37.3(b), 42.3(b), (c); see also TEX. R. APP. P. 5; 10TH TEX. APP. (WACO) LOC. R. 5(a).
