NO. 12-14-00117-CV IN THE COURT OF APPEALS TWELFTH COURT OF APPEALS DISTRICT TYLER, TEXAS AMERICAN DREAM TEAM, INC., APPELLANT § APPEAL FROM THE 173RD V. § JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT CITIZENS STATE BANK, APPELLEE § HENDERSON COUNTY, TEXAS MEMORANDUM OPINION PER CURIAM This appeal is being dismissed for failure 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., May 7, 2014. See TEX. R. APP. P. 32.1. On May 8, 2014, this court sent a notice informing Appellant that it should file a docketing statement within ten days if it had not already done so. On the same date, this court sent Appellant a notice requesting that it remit the filing fee for the appeal on or before May 19, 2014. Appellant did not pay the filing fee or file the docketing statement. Accordingly, on May 21, 2014, this court issued another 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 May 19, 2014, 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 June 2, 2014, 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 to comply with Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure 5 and 32.1, the appeal is dismissed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(c). Opinion delivered June 11, 2013. Panel consisted of Worthen, C.J., Griffith, J., and Hoyle, J.
