Cuyahoga App. No. 85835, 2005-Ohio-5851.
MISCELLANEOUS DISMISSALS
This cause is pending before the court as a discretionary appeal and claimed appeal of right. On January 5, 2006, when this appeal was filed, a check in the amount of $40.00 was submitted by counsel for appellant to satisfy the requirement of the docket fee imposed by R.C. 2503.17 and S.Ct.Prac.R. XV(1). This court has been informed by the Office of the Treasurer of the State of Ohio that the check was returned because of insufficient funds. Whereas R.C. 2503.17 and S.Ct.Prac.R. XV(1) require that the docket fee shall be paid before a notice of appeal is filed or a case is docketed,
IT IS ORDERED by the court, sua sponte, that this cause is dismissed.
