DAVID M. DORWARD AND JANET C. CORRALES, Appellants v. DALLAS COUNTY, CITY OF COCKRELL HILL, DALLAS INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT, DALLAS COUNTY SCHOOL EQUALIZATION FUND, PARKLAND HOSPITAL DISTRICT AND DALLAS COUNTY COMMUNITY COLLEGE DISTRICT, Appellees
DISMISS; and Opinion Filed November 13, 2013.
On Appeal from the 116th Judicial District Court
Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. TX-11-31604
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices O'Neill, Lang-Miers, and Evans
Opinion by Justice Lang-Miers
Our records reflect that, since the filing of the notice of appeal in December 2012, appellants have taken no steps to prosecute this appeal. They have failed to (a) pay the filing fee, (b) file the required docketing statement, (c) request the reporter's record, and (d) pay the fee for the clerk's record so that the clerk's record could be filed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 5, 32.1, 34.6(b), 35.3. Despite being cautioned that their appeal would be dismissed unless they paid the filing fee and the fee for the clerk's record by October 21, 2013, appellants have not complied or otherwise communicated with the Court. Because nothing in our records reflects appellants are excused by statute or rule from paying the filing fee and clerk's fee, and they have failed to pay those fees, we dismiss the appeal. See id. 37.3(b), 42.3(b),(c).
