                              THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

                On Appeal from the County Criminal Court of Appeals No. 1

                                            ORDER
       Before the Court is appellant’s February 12, 2015, motion to determine proper

designation of case and appropriate appellate filing fee. In his motion, appellant asks this Court

to change the designation of this case from civil to criminal and determine that, because this is a

criminal proceeding, it is exempt from the appellate filing fee. We DENY the motion to the

extent the case will remain on our docket as a civil case. We GRANT the motion to the extent

that we DIRECT the Clerk of the Court that no filing fee or motion fees will be collected in this

bond forfeiture appellate proceeding. See Safety Nat’l Cas. Corp. v. Texas, 305 S.W.3d 586, 588

(Tex. Crim. App. 2010).
