From the 131st Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2014-CI-00467 Honorable David A. Canales, Judge Presiding
ORDER
On May 8, 2015, Appellants filed a notice of appeal and an affidavit of indigence.
Appellees and others challenged the affidavit, and on May 28, 2015, the trial court held a hearing to address the contest. See TEX. R. APP. P. 20.1. The trial court found that James Dwight Lowe Sr. is not indigent and ordered him to pay all costs on appeal. See id. R. 20.1(n) (defining costs).
On June 5, 2015, Appellant James Dwight Lowe Sr. filed an affidavit of indigence in this court. Thereafter, the Chief Staff Attorney for the Bexar County Civil District Courts provided this court with copies of the trial court’s May 28, 2015 order on the indigence contest.
Given the trial court’s determination that Appellant is not indigent, we order Appellant to pay costs of this appeal, including the $195.00 and $10.00 filing fees, and the costs to prepare the clerk’s and reporter’s records. See id.
If Appellant fails to pay the filing fees and the cost to prepare the clerk’s record within ten days of the date of this order, this appeal may be dismissed. See id. R. 5, 42.3; In re W.J.C., No. 04-05-00532-CV, 2005 WL 3477883, at *1 (Tex. App.—San Antonio Dec. 21, 2005, no pet.) (mem. op.).
Appellant must also file a docketing statement. See TEX. R. APP. P. 32.1. The docketing statement must be filed within ten days of the date of this order. See id.; 4TH TEX. APP. (SAN ANTONIO) LOC. R. 5.2, available at http://www.txcourts.gov/4thcoa/practice-before-thecourt /local-rules.aspx.
All other appellate deadlines are suspended pending further order of this court.
