          On appeal from the County Court at Law No. 5
                   of Nueces County, Texas.

                         MEMORANDUM OPINION
              Before Justices Rodriguez, Benavides, and Perkes
                      Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam

      Appellant, Derek Smith, appealed a judgment entered by the County Court at Law

No. 5 of Nueces County, Texas. On October 20, 2014, the Clerk of this Court notified

appellant, in accordance with Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 42.3(c), that we would

dismiss this appeal unless the $195.00 filing fee was paid. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(c).
Appellant has not responded to the notice from the Clerk or paid the $195.00 filing fee.

See TEX. R. APP. P. 5, 12.1(b).

      The Court, having considered the documents on file and appellant’s failure to pay

the filing fee, is of the opinion that the appeal should be dismissed. See id. 42.3(b),(c).

Accordingly, the appeal is DISMISSED for want of prosecution.



                                                              PER CURIAM

Delivered and filed the 13th
day of November, 2014.
