APPEAL FROM THE

APPELLANT

 

V.

 
COUNTY COURT AT LAW OF

JOSE FELICIANO,

APPELLEE

 
SMITH COUNTY, TEXAS
MEMORANDUM OPINION
PER CURIAM

This appeal is being dismissed for failure to comply with the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure. Tex. R. App. P. 42.3. Pursuant to Rule 32.1, Appellant's docketing statement was due to have been filed at the time the appeal was perfected, i.e., December 30, 2003. See Tex. R. App. P. 32.1. On January 6, 2004, this court notified Appellant that he should file a docketing statement immediately if he had not already done so. However, Appellant failed to file a docketing statement.

On January 21, 2004, this court issued a second notice advising Appellant that the docketing statement was past due. The notice also advised Appellant that the filing fee was due to have been paid on or before January 16, 2004, but had not been received. See Tex. R. App. P. 5 (requiring payment of filing fee at time an item is presented for filing). The notice further provided that unless the docketing statement and filing fee were filed on or before February 2, 2004, the appeal would be presented for dismissal in accordance with Rule 42.3. The time for filing the docketing statement and paying the filing fee has expired, and Appellant has not complied with the court's request. Because Appellant has failed after notice to comply with Rule 5 and Rule 32.1, the appeal is dismissed. Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(c).

Opinion delivered February 4, 2004.

Panel consisted of Worthen, C.J., Griffith, J., and DeVasto, J.
