On Appeal from the 295th District Court Harris County, Texas Trial Court Case No. 2024-26591

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Appellants Affordable Ready Mix.com and Grace Raven have neither

established indigence, nor paid their appellate filing fee. 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 ANN. §§ 51.207, 51.208, 51.851(b) (listing fees in court of appeals), 51.941(a); Order, Fees Charged in the

Supreme Court, in Civil Cases in the Courts 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

court of appeals). Appellants were notified by the Court that this appeal would be

subject to dismissal—unless they timely informed the Court in writing as to why

they should not pay the appellate filing fee, or actually pay the fee. Appellants never

responded as requested by the Court. See TEX. R. APP. P. 5 (allowing enforcement

of rule); 42.3(b)–(c) (allowing involuntary dismissal of case), 43.2(f).

As a result, we dismiss this appeal for want of prosecution. We dismiss any

pending motions as moot.

PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Chief Justice Adams and Justices Guerra and Guiney.
