THE CITY OF DALLAS, KEVIN MANSELL, AND ABIGAIL DOMINGUEZ, Appellees

                       On Appeal from the 162nd Judicial District Court
                                    Dallas County, Texas
                            Trial Court Cause No. DC-16-02799

                              MEMORANDUM OPINION
                 Before Chief Justice Burns, Justice Molberg, and Justice Nowell
                                 Opinion by Chief Justice Burns
       Since filing her notice of appeal on September 11, 2019, appellant has not communicated

with this Court or taken any further steps to prosecute the appeal. She has not paid the appellate

filing fee and has not filed an affidavit indicating her inability to pay nor anything with this Court

asking for relief from inability to pay.

       On October 22, 2019, the district clerk informed the Court the clerk’s record would not be

filed because appellant had not paid the clerk’s fee. That same day, we directed appellant to file,

no later than November 1, 2019, written verification she had made arrangements to pay the fee or

was entitled to proceed without paying the fee. See Tex. R. App. P. 35.3(a).            Although we

cautioned appellant that failure to comply could result in dismissal of the appeal without further
notice, appellant has not complied. See id. 37.3(b). Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal. See id.,

42.3(b),(c).
