From the 451st Judicial District Court, Kendall County, Texas

Honorable Kirsten Cohoon, Judge Presiding
PER CURIAM
Sitting: Irene Rios, Justice
Lori I. Valenzuela, Justice
Lori Massey Brissette, Justice
Delivered and Filed: July 15, 2026
DISMISSED
A filing fee of $205.00 was due when appellant filed his notice of appeal. See TEXAS
SUPREME COURT ORDER REGARDING FEES CHARGED IN THE SUPREME COURT, IN CIVIL CASES IN
THE COURTS OF APPEALS, BEFORE THE JUDICIAL PANEL ON MULTIDISTRICT LITIGATION, AND IN
THE BUSINESS COURT, Misc. Docket No. 24-9047 (Tex. July 26, 2024). On April 30, 2026, the
clerk of the court notified appellant of this deficiency by letter and requested payment of the fee
04-26-00139-CV
no later than May 11, 2026. On May 27, 2026, we ordered appellant to pay the filing fee on or
before June 11, 2026. Our order cautioned appellant that this appeal would be dismissed if the
filing fee was not paid by the date provided.
The filing fee remains unpaid, and there is nothing filed in this court or in the trial court
indicating appellant is indigent and unable to afford costs of appeal. Accordingly, we dismiss this
appeal for want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(a); see also TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(c)
(permitting appellate courts to dismiss an appeal when appellant fails to comply with a court order).
