MEMORANDUM  Opinion

 




          Chad Fenley Davis seeks a writ of
mandamus directing Respondent, the Honorable Steve Smith, Judge of the 361st
District Court of Brazos County, to issue an order requiring “officials of the
361st Judicial District Court” to return $103 in United States currency in compliance
with a 1996 order issued by Respondent’s predecessor in office.  The petition is
denied.
          Absent a specific exemption, the Clerk
of this Court must collect filing fees at the time a document is presented for
filing.  Tex. R. App. P. 12.1(b); Appendix to Tex. R. App. P., Order Regarding Fees (July 21, 1998); see

Clerk to write off all unpaid filing fees in this case.  Tex. R. App. P. 2.
