Joe Ervin Lockridge v. Ashley Renee Saylors, Nancy Knox-Bierman, and Stephanie Martin

Order entered September 21, 2021

In The

Court of Appeals

Fifth District of Texas at Dallas

No. 05-21-00717-CV

JOE ERVIN LOCKRIDGE, Appellant

V.

ASHLEY RENEE SAYLORS, NANCY KNOX-BIERMAN, AND

STEPHANIE MARTIN, Appellees

On Appeal from the 298th Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. DC-21-02578

ORDER

Before the Court is appellant’s motion for extension of time to file an affidavit of inability to pay costs. We note the clerk’s record contains a copy of an affidavit of inability to pay filed on September 9, 2020 and a copy of an affidavit of inability to pay filed on February 25, 2021. Because nothing reflects the trial court ordered appellant to pay costs, appellant is not required to pay costs, and an affidavit of inability to pay costs need not be filed in this Court. See TEX. R. CIV. P. 145; TEX. R. APP. P. 20.1. Accordingly, we DENY appellant’s motion as moot.
