NO. 12-12-00026-CV IN THE COURT OF APPEALS TWELFTH COURT OF APPEALS DISTRICT TYLER, TEXAS GLORIA THOMAS, APPELLANT § APPEAL FROM THE V. § COUNTY COURT AT LAW #2 CHURCHILL AT LONGVIEW, APPELLEE § GREGG COUNTY, TEXAS MEMORANDUM OPINION PER CURIAM This appeal is being dismissed because Appellant has failed to comply with the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure. See 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., January 4, 2012. See TEX. R. APP. P. 32.1. Because Appellant did not file her docketing statement at that time, this court requested by letter dated January 13, 2012, that she file her docketing statement within ten days if she had not already done so. Appellant did not file the docketing statement as requested. In a second notice dated February 2, 2012, the court advised Appellant that the filing fee was due to have been paid on or before January 23, 2012, but had not been received, and that the docketing statement was past due. The notice further provided that unless the filing fee was paid and the docketing statement filed on or before February 13, 2012, the appeal would be presented for dismissal in accordance with Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 42.3. See TEX. R. APP. P. 5, 32.1. The February 13 deadline has passed, and Appellant has not complied with the court s request. Because Appellant has failed, after notice, to comply with Rules 5 and 32.1, the appeal is dismissed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(c). Opinion delivered March 7, 2012. Panel consisted of Worthen, C.J., Griffith, J., and Hoyle, J.
