                           Trial Court No. DC-23-54852

                           MEMORANDUM OPINION

       Cornelius Milan Harper appeals from an order of dismissal signed June 29, 2023,

disposing of his claims against the State of Texas. By letter dated September 12, 2023, the

Clerk of this Court notified Harper that his original filing fee for the appeal was past due.

Harper was warned in the same letter that, unless he obtained indigent status pursuant

to Texas Rule of Civil Procedure 145 and Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 20, the

payment of the fee is required. See TEX. R. CIV. P. 145; TEX. R. APP. P. 20. He was further
warned that failure to pay the filing fee within twenty-one days from the date of the letter

would result in the appeal being dismissed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(c). More than twenty-

one days have passed, and Harper has failed to pay his original filing fee.

          Accordingly, this appeal is dismissed.1
