                 MEMORANDUM                      OPINION


      This is an appeal from a judgment signed May 20, 2014. The notice of
appeal was filed July 7, 2014. To date, our records show that appellant has not
paid the $195.00 appellate filing fee. See Tex. R. App. P. 5 (requiring payment of
fees in civil cases unless indigent); Tex. R. App. P. 20.1 (listing requirements for
establishing indigence); see also; Tex. Gov’t Code Ann. § 51.207.
      On August 12, 2014, this court ordered appellant to pay the appellate filing
fee on or before August 27, 2014, or the appeal would be dismissed. Appellant has
not paid the appellate filing fee. Accordingly, the appeal is ordered dismissed. See
Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(c) (allowing involuntary dismissal of case because appellant
has failed to comply with notice from clerk requiring response or other action
within specified time).



                                     PER CURIAM
