APPELLEE
                                        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(c).
         On February 21, 2018, the clerk of this Court notified Appellants that the filing fee in this
appeal is due. See TEX. R. APP. P. 5. Appellants were informed that failure to remit the filing fee
on or before March 5, 2018, would result in the Court’s taking appropriate action, including
dismissal of the case without further notice. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(c). The date for remitting
the filing fee has passed, and Appellants have not complied with the Court’s request.
         Because Appellants have failed, after notice, to comply with Rule 5, the appeal is
dismissed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(c).
Opinion delivered March 7, 2018.
Panel consisted of Worthen, C.J., Hoyle, J., and Neeley, J.
