ABDULLAH HAKEEM OLAJUWON, Appellant V. KIANA AKHLAGHI, Appellee

On Appeal from 240th District Court Fort Bend County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 24-DCV-313558

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Appellant, Abdullah Hakeem Olajuwon, has neither established indigence,

nor paid all the required fees. See TEX. R. APP. P. 5 (requiring payment of fees in

civil cases unless indigent), 20.1 (listing requirements for establishing indigence);

see also TEX. GOV’T CODE §§ 51.207, 51.941(a), 101.041 (listing fees in court of

appeals); Order, Fees Charged in the Supreme Court, in Civil Cases in the Courts 1 of Appeals, and Before the Judicial Panel on Multi-District Litigation, and in the

Business Court, Misc. Docket No. 24-9047 (Tex. July 26, 2024), reprinted in TEX.

R. APP. P. app. A § B(1) (listing fees in courts of appeals). Appellant was notified

by the Court that this appeal would be subject to dismissal—unless he timely

informed the Court in writing as to why he should not pay the fee, or actually pays

the fee. Appellant never responded as requested by the Court. See TEX. R. APP. P.

5 (allowing enforcement of rule); 42.3(c) (allowing involuntary dismissal of case).

As a result, we dismiss this appeal due to the nonpayment of all required

fees. We dismiss any pending motions as moot.

PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Chief Justice Adams and Justices Gunn and Johnson.
