This is an appeal from a judgment signed February 28, 2007. The notice of appeal was filed on March 26, 2007. To date, our records show that appellant has neither established that it is excused from paying costs nor paid the $125.00 appellate filing fee. See Tex. R. App. P. 5 (requiring payment of fees in civil cases unless party is excused by statute or appellate rules from paying costs); see also Order Regarding Fees Charged in Civil Cases in the Supreme Court and the Courts of Appeals, Misc. Docket No. 98-9120 (Tex. Jul. 21, 1998) (listing fees in court of appeals); Tex. Gov=t Code Ann. ' 51.207 (Vernon 2005) (same).

After being given the requisite ten-days= notice that this appeal was subject to dismissal, appellant did not respond. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3. Accordingly, the appeal is ordered dismissed. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(c) (allowing involuntary dismissal of case because appellant has failed to comply with notice from clerk requiring response or other action within specified time).
