Dismissed and Memorandum Opinion filed November 13, 2014. In The Fourteenth Court of Appeals NO. 14-14-00287-CV RICHARD ALAN HAASE AND AUDREY LOIS HAASE, Appellants V. SANTANDER CONSUMER USA, INC., Appellee On Appeal from the 268th District Court Fort Bend County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 12-DCV-197259 MEMORANDUM OPINION This is an appeal from a judgment signed January 10, 2014. The notice of appeal was filed April 14, 2014. To date, our records show that appellants have not paid the appellate filing fee. See Tex. R. App. P. 5 (requiring payment of fees in civil cases unless indigent); Tex. R. App. P. 20.1 (listing requirements for establishing indigence); see also Tex. Gov’t Code Ann. § 51.207. On July 3, 2014, this court denied appellants’ motion to proceed as indigent and ordered appellants to pay the appellate filing fee on or before July 18, 2014, or the appeal would be dismissed. On July 16, 2014, appellants notified this court of their intent to file a petition for writ of mandamus in the Texas Supreme Court challenging this court’s decision on indigence. At appellants’ request this court abated the appeal for a period of 60 days. No petition for writ of mandamus was filed during the abatement period. Appellants have not paid the appellate filing fee. 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). PER CURIAM Panel consists of Justices Boyce, Busby, and Wise. 2
