MEMORANDUM OPINION AND JUDGMENT
See Tex. R. App. P. 47.4.
On November 13, 2008, this court issued an order affirming the trial court's order sustaining the contest to Appellant Robin W. Eisenhauer's affidavit of indigence. In that order, we provided that Appellant's failure to pay the required filing fee for an appeal of $175.00 on or before Monday November 24, 2008, would result in the dismissal of this case for want of prosecution. We have not received the filing fee.
See Tex. R. App. P. 5, 12.1(b), 42.3(c).
On November 24, 2008, we received Appellant's motion for rehearing of our November 13, 2008 order. Even though Appellant did not pay the required $10.00 filing fee for the motion, we have reviewed his motion for rehearing in the interest of justice, and it is DENIED.
Accordingly, because Appellant by failing to pay the required filing fee of $175.00 has failed to comply with a requirement of the rules of appellate procedure and the Texas Supreme Court's order of August 28, 2007, we dismiss this appeal.
See Supreme Court of Tex., Order Regarding Fees Charged in Civil Cases in the Supreme Court and the Courts of Appeals and Before the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation, Misc. Docket No. 07-9138 (Aug. 28, 2007) (listing fees in courts of appeals).
See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(c), 43.2(f).
Appellant shall pay all costs of this appeal, for which let execution issue.
