TONYA M. LANCE, Appellant v. DONYEA D. BARFIELD, Appellee
On Appeal from the 257th District Court Harris County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 2005-33662
MEMORANDUM OPINION
This is an appeal from a judgment signed February 10, 2020. The notice of appeal was filed February 26, 2020. Our records show appellant has not paid the appellate filing fee, and no evidence that appellant is excused by statute or the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure from paying costs has been filed. See Tex. R. App. P. 5 (requiring payment of fees in civil cases unless party is excused by statute or by appellate rules from paying costs); Tex. Gov't Code § 51.207. On March 14, 2020, this court ordered appellants to pay the appellate filing fee by April 24, 2020, or the appeal would be dismissed. The filing fee has not been paid.
Accordingly, the appeal is DISMISSED. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(c) (allowing involuntary dismissal of case because appellant failed to comply with notice from clerk requiring response or other action within specified time).
PER CURIAM Panel consists of Chief Justice Frost and Justices Zimmerer and Poissant.
