MEMORANDUM OPINION
From the 131st Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas
Trial Court No. 2014-CI-00485
Honorable David A. Canales, Judge Presiding
PER CURIAM Sitting: Catherine Stone, Chief Justice Patricia O. Alvarez, Justice Luz Elena D. Chapa, Justice DISMISSED FOR WANT OF PROSECUTION
Appellant was required to pay $195.00 and $10.00 fees when he filed his notice of appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 5. Appellant did not pay the required fees. Accordingly, the clerk of this court notified Appellant by letter dated July 30, 2014, that the notice of appeal was conditionally filed and the filing fees were overdue.
See also TEX. GOV'T CODE ANN. §§ 51.0051, 51.207(b)(1), 51.208, 51.941(a) (West 2013); Texas Supreme Court 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 (Tex. Aug. 28, 2007), reprinted in TEX. R. APP. P. app. A § B.l.(a).
On August 26, 2014, when the fees remained unpaid, this court ordered Appellant to provide written proof to this court not later than September 10, 2014, that either (1) the $195.00 and $10.00 filing fees have been paid, or (2) 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. 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.).
To date, Appellant has not filed any response with this court. Therefore, we dismiss this appeal for want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 37.3(b), 42.3(c). The district clerk's motion for extension of time to file the clerk's record is moot.
