V.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the County Criminal Court of Appeals No. 1 Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. MC-14-R0012-D
ORDER Before the Court is appellant’s February 12, 2015, motion to determine proper
designation of case and appropriate appellate filing fee. In his motion, appellant asks this Court
to change the designation of this case from civil to criminal and determine that, because this is a
criminal proceeding, it is exempt from the appellate filing fee. We DENY the motion to the
extent the case will remain on our docket as a civil case. We GRANT the motion to the extent
that we DIRECT the Clerk of the Court that no filing fee or motion fees will be collected in this
bond forfeiture appellate proceeding. See Safety Nat’l Cas. Corp. v. Texas, 305 S.W.3d 586, 588
(Tex. Crim. App. 2010).
