Before QUINN, REAVIS, and CAMPBELL, JJ.

Appellants Allison and David Chapa filed a notice of appeal on March 20, 2003.  However, the Chapas did not pay the $125 filing fee required from appellants pursuant to Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 5.  Nor did they file an affidavit pursuant to Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 20.1 relieving appellants of their duty to pay the fee.  By letter from this Court dated May 22, 2003, we informed appellants that “[u]nless the filing fee in the amount of $125.00 is paid by Monday, June 02, 2003, the appeal will be subject to dismissal.”

Consequently, we dismiss the appeal pursuant to Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 42.3(c).
