M E M O R A N D U M   O P I N I O N

This is an appeal from a judgment signed March 25, 2011.  The notice of appeal was filed on April 25, 2011.  To date, our records show that appellant has neither established indigence nor paid the $175.00 appellate filing fee.  See Tex. R. App. P. 5 (requiring payment of fees in civil cases unless indigent); Tex. R. App. P. 20.1 (listing requirements for establishing indigence); see also 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) (listing fees in court of appeals); Tex. Gov’t Code Ann.. ' 51.207 (Vernon 2005) (same).

On June 16, 2011, this court ordered appellant to pay the appellate filing fee on or before July 1, 2011, or the appeal would be dismissed.  Appellant has not paid the appellate filing fee.  Accordingly, the appeal is ordered dismissed.  See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(c) (allowing involuntary dismissal of case because appellant has failed to comply with a requirement of these rules, a court order, or a notice from clerk requiring response or other action within specified time).
