PLATINUM SAPPHIRE HOSPITALITY, LLC, Appellant

v.

Linda THOMPSON, Appellee

From the 131st Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2025-CI-14702 Honorable Rosie Alvarado, Judge Presiding

PER CURIAM

Sitting: Rebeca C. Martinez, Chief Justice Irene Rios, Justice Velia J. Meza, Justice

Delivered and Filed: May 27, 2026

DISMISSED FOR WANT OF PROSECUTION

On February 6, 2026, the appellant, Platinum Sapphire Hospitality, LLC, filed a notice of

appeal. Upon filing that notice, the appellant was required to pay a $205.00 filing fee. See TEX. R.

APP. P. 5. However, appellant did not pay the filing fee, and we notified appellant in writing that

the notice of appeal had been conditionally filed because the filing fee had not been paid. We

instructed appellant to pay the fee and cautioned if the fee was not paid, the appeal was subject to

being stricken by this court. The fee was not paid. 04-26-00102-CV

On April 27, 2026, we ordered appellant, by May 7, 2026, to either: (1) pay the filing fee;

or (2) provide written proof it was entitled to appeal without paying the filing fee. We warned

appellant if it failed to respond within the time ordered, we would dismiss the appeal. See TEX. R.

APP. P. 5, 42.3(c).

Appellant has not paid the filing fee or otherwise responded to our order as directed.

Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 5, 42.3(c); Zayas v. Denson, No. 04-18-

00373-CV, 2018 WL 3551193, at *1 (Tex. App.—San Antonio July 25, 2018, no pet.) (mem. op.)

(dismissing appeal for failure to pay filing fee).
