From the 150th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas
Trial Court No. 2015CI00537
Honorable Renée Yanta, Judge Presiding PER CURIAM Sitting: Patricia O. Alvarez, Justice Luz Elena D. Chapa, Justice Irene Rios, Justice DISMISSED FOR WANT OF PROSECUTION

Appellant Geoffrey Scott Curtin filed a notice of appeal in this court on March 7, 2017. Appellant was required to pay $205.00 and $10.00 in filing fees to this court. See TEX. R. APP. P. 5. Appellant did not timely pay the required fees. Accordingly, when the fees remained unpaid, on April 25, 2017, this court ordered Appellant to provide written proof to this court not later than May 5, 2017, that the filing fees have been paid or Appellant is entitled to appeal without paying the filing fees. See id. We warned Appellant that if he failed to respond as ordered, the appeal would be dismissed without further notice. See id. R. 5, 42.3; In re W.J.C., No. 04-05-00532-CV, 2005 WL 3477883, at *1 (Tex. App.—San Antonio Dec. 21, 2005, no pet.) (mem. op.).
