See TEX. R. APP. P. 5; Appendix to TEX. R. APP. P., Order Regarding Fees (Amended Aug. 28, 2007, eff. Sept. 1, 2007). See also 10TH TEX. APP. (WACO) LOC. R. 5; TEX.

On November 8, 2013, Appellant paid the required filing and fax fees of $20 for his Motion to Extend Time to File Appellant s Brief; however, Appellant continued to owe $20 for required fax fees that were past due. On November 27, 2013, the Clerk of the Court sent a letter to Appellant reminding him of the foregoing.

See TEX. R. APP. P. 5, 42.3(c). More than fourteen days have passed since the November 27 letter, and Appellant has not filed an indigence affidavit or paid the required filing and fax fees; accordingly, we dismiss this appeal.
