MEMORANDUM OPINION

Appellants ARJCAR, L.L.C., Christina Rivera, and Armando Rivera, Jr. filed

a notice of appeal from the trial court’s March 7, 2024 final judgment. Appellants

have neither paid the required fees nor established indigence for purposes of costs.

See TEX. R. CIV. P. 145; TEX. R. APP. P. 5, 20.1; see also TEX. GOV’T CODE ANN. §§ 51.207, 51.208, 51.851(b), 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, Misc. Docket No. 15-9158 (Tex. Aug. 28, 2015). On May 3, 2024,

appellants were notified that this appeal was subject to dismissal if appellate costs

were not paid, or indigence was not established, by June 3, 2024. See TEX. R. APP.

P. 42.3(b), (c). Appellants did not adequately respond.

Further, appellants have not paid or made arrangements to pay the fee for the

preparation of the clerk’s record. See TEX. R. APP. P. 37.3(b). On May 7, 2024,

appellants were notified that this appeal was subject to dismissal if appellants did

not submit written evidence that they had paid or made arrangements to pay the fee

for the preparation of the clerk’s record by June 6, 2024. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(b),

(c). Appellants did not adequately respond.

Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for nonpayment of all required fees and

want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 5, 42.3(b), (c), 43.2(f). We dismiss any

pending motions as moot.

PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Justices Goodman, Guerra, and Farris.
