Opinion

Order filed August 12, 2014

In The Fourteenth Court of Appeals ____________ NO. 14-14-00438-CV ____________ ERIC NDUBUEZE UFOM, Appellant V. WEST WYNDE HEALTH SERVICES, INC., GLADYS IBIK AND JOHN IBIK, Appellees

On Appeal from the 113th District Court Harris County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 2011-70277 ORDER The notice of appeal in this case was filed May 30, 2014. Appellant filed an affidavit to proceed without advance payment of costs on appeal. On July 28, 2014, the trial court signed an order sustaining a contest to appellant’s claim of indigence.

Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 20.1 governs the procedures to establish indigence on appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 20.1. The rule requires a party claiming indigence who seeks review of the trial court’s order sustaining a contest to file his challenge “within 10 days after the order sustaining the contest is signed, or within days after the notice of appeal is filed, whichever is later.” Tex. R. App. P. 20.1(j)(2). As of this date, appellant has not filed a motion challenging the trial court’s order.

Accordingly, appellant is ordered to pay the filing fee in the amount of $195.00 to the Clerk of this court on or before August 21, 2014. See Tex. R. App. P. 5. If appellant fails to timely pay the filing fee in accordance with this order, the appeal will be dismissed.
