Dear Ms. Jean Webb:

The New York Mercantile Exchange ("NYMEX" or the "Exchange") notified the
Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC” or “Commission”) of new NYMEX Division
Rule 8.21A, Maintenance of Health and Safety in Exchange Trading Rings in NYMEX
Submission 05.207 dated December 9, 2005. The new Rule set forth procedures to implement
hard limits on the number of Floor Members who may stand on a particular step in the trading

ting. The amended Submission changed the effective date of the Rule from December 12, 2005
to January 3, 2006.

The Exchange, at this time, requests the withdrawal of Amended Submission 05.207 due
to the suspension of the implementation date, and additional review and pending modifications to

the Rule. Subsequent to review and approval of the modifications to Rule 8.21A by the NYMEX
Board of Directors, the Exchange will self-certify the Rule.

Should you have any questions concerning the above, please contact me at (212)
299-2897, or Brian Regan, Vice President and Counsel, at (212) 299-2207.

Trial Court Cause No. DF-10-05399

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Before Justices Moseley, Francis and Lang 

Opinion by Justice Francis

This is an appeal from a judgment in favor of appellee on appellee’s sworn account. 

Appellant filed an affidavit of indigence, seeking to proceed in the appeal without advance 

payment of costs. See TEX. R. APP. P. 20.1(a)(2). The affidavit was contested, and the contest 

sustained by the trial court. See id. 20.1(i). On appellant’s motion, we reviewed the trial court’s 

order and concluded, by opinion issued November 1, 2012, that the trial court did not abuse its 

discretion in sustaining the contest. See In re P.E., No. 05-12-00944-CV, 2012 WL 5378250, at 

*2 (Tex. App.—Dallas Nov. 1, 2012, no pet.) (mem. op.). Accordingly, appellant was 

responsible for paying the costs associated with the appeal, including the filing fee. See TEX. R.

APP. P. 20.1(i)(4), 20.1(n). 

By letter dated January 18, 2013, we directed appellant to pay, within ten days, the $175 

filing fee. We cautioned appellant that failure to pay the fee would result in dismissal of the 
2

appeal without further notice. To date, appellant has not paid the fee or otherwise communicated 

with the Court. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3 (c).
