No. 07-22-00345-CV

CASSANDRA CORTEZ, APPELLANT

V.

COREY DURLEY, APPELLEE

On Appeal from the County Court at Law No. 1 Potter County, Texas Trial Court No. 111226-1-CV, Honorable Walton Weaver, Presiding

January 24, 2023 MEMORANDUM OPINION Before PARKER and DOSS and YARBROUGH, JJ.

Appellant, Cassandra Cortez, proceeding pro se, filed a notice of appeal from the

trial court’s judgment without paying the requisite filing fee. By letter of November 15,

2022, the Clerk of this Court notified Cortez that the filing fee was overdue and that unless

she was excused from paying court costs under Rule of Appellate Procedure 20.1, failure

to pay the filing fee by November 28 would result in dismissal of the appeal. To date,

Cortez has not paid the filing fee or sought leave to proceed without payment of court

costs. Because Cortez has failed to comply with a requirement of the appellate rules and

a notice from the Clerk requiring action within a specified time, we dismiss the appeal.

See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.1(b), 42.3(c).
