DONALD BLACKSHIER, Appellant

V. JAMES THIBODEAUX, Appellee On Appeal from County Civil Court at Law No. 2 Harris County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 1078082

MEMORANDUM OPINION

This is an appeal from a judgment signed June 20, 2016. The notice of appeal was filed on June 30, 2016. To date, our records show that appellant has not paid the appellate filing fee. See Tex. R. App. P. 5 (requiring payment of fees in civil cases unless party is excused by statute or by appellate rules from paying costs); Tex. Gov’t Code Ann. § 51.207.

On August 30, 2016, this court ordered appellant to pay the appellate filing fee on or before September 9, 2016, or the appeal would be dismissed. Appellant has not paid the appellate filing fee.

Accordingly, the appeal is DISMISSED. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(c) (allowing involuntary dismissal of case because appellant has failed to comply with notice from clerk requiring response or other action within specified time).

PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Justices Busby, Donovan, and Brown.
