                                                             §     APPEAL FROM THE
 IN THE MATTER OF THE ESTATE
                                                             §      COUNTY COURT AT LAW NO. 2
 OF ROBERT HUGH MCNAIR, JR.
                                                             §     HENDERSON COUNTY, TEXAS

                                        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).
         A party who is not excused by statute or the appellate rules from paying costs must pay--
at the time an item is presented for filing--whatever fees are required by statute or Texas Supreme
Court order. TEX. R. APP. P. 5. An appellate court may enforce Rule 5 by any order that is just.
Id. After giving ten days’ notice, an appellate court may dismiss an appeal because the appellant
failed to comply with a requirement of the appellate rules, a court order, or a notice from the clerk
requiring a response or other action within a specified time. TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(c).
         On February 3, 2020, the Clerk of this Court notified Appellant, Sue Syler McNair, that
the filing fee in this appeal is due. See TEX. R. APP. P. 5. Appellant was informed that failure to
remit the filing fee on or before February 13 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 passed, and Appellant has not paid the fee or otherwise shown that she is
excused from paying the fee. 1
         Because Appellant failed, after notice, to comply with Rule 5, the appeal is dismissed. See
TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(c).
