NO. 07-05-0442-CV IN THE COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE SEVENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS AT AMARILLO PANEL A DECEMBER 28, 2005 ______________________________ BRYCE MAEDA, ET AL., APPELLANTS V. DAVID AND RUTH TIMMONS, APPELLEES _________________________________ FROM POTTER COUNTY COURT AT LAW NO. 1; NO. 93,936-1; HONORABLE W.F. CORKY ROBERTS, JUDGE _______________________________ Before REAVIS and CAMPBELL and HANCOCK, JJ. MEMORANDUM OPINION Following a pro se notice of appeal challenging a default judgment, appellants Bryce Maeda, et al. were notified by letter dated December 9, 2005, to pay the required filing fee of $125 within ten days, noting that failure to do so might result in dismissal. Unless a party is excused from paying a filing fee, the Clerk of this Court is required to collect filing fees set by statute or the Supreme Court when an item is presented for filing. See Tex. R. App. P. 5 and 12.1(b). Although the filing of a notice of appeal invokes this Court s jurisdiction, if a party fails to follow the prescribed rules of appellate procedure, the appeal may be dismissed. Tex. R. App. P. 25.1(b). To date, the fee remains unpaid. Thus, we must dismiss the appeal. Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed for failure to comply with the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure and with a notice from the Clerk requiring payment of the filing fee. Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(c). Don H. Reavis Justice 2
