RICHARD EARL SISNEY SR., Appellant v. BRENDA LEE SISNEY, Appellee
On Appeal from the 410th District Court Montgomery County, Texas
Trial Cause No. 13-09-10256-CV
MEMORANDUM OPINION
On October 27, 2015, we notified the parties that the filing fee had not been paid and warned that the appeal would be dismissed unless the appellant remitted the filing fee for the appeal. Appellant did not respond to this Court's notice.
An appellant who wishes to proceed on appeal without payment of costs must file an affidavit of indigence. See Tex. R. App. P. 20.1. An appeal may be dismissed if the appellant fails to comply with a requirement of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure, or fails to respond to a notice from the Clerk of the Court requiring a response or other action within a specified time. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(c).
Appellant did not file an affidavit of indigence on appeal and has not shown that he is entitled to proceed without payment of costs. See generally Tex. R. App. P. 20.1. Appellant failed to comply with notices that required a response. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(c). There being no reasonable explanation for the failure to pay the filing fee for the appeal, we dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3.
APPEAL DISMISSED.
