                          MEMORANDUM OPINION

      On December 10, 2019, we notified the parties that the appeal would be

dismissed unless the appellants remitted the filing fee for the appeal. Appellants did

not respond.

      Appellants did not file an affidavit of indigence on appeal and have not shown

that they are entitled to proceed without payment of costs. See Tex. R. App. P. 20.1.




                                          1
There being no satisfactory explanation for the failure to pay the filing fee for the

appeal, the appeal is dismissed for want of prosecution. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3.

      APPEAL DISMISSED.
