NO. 07-12-0197-CV
                            IN THE COURT OF APPEALS
                     FOR THE SEVENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS
                                    AT AMARILLO

                In the Estate of STEWART ELDON FETTIG, Deceased

FROM THE COUNTY COURT AT LAW NO. ONE OF BELL COUNTY;
               NO. 28,507; HON. EDWARD S. JOHNSON, PRESIDING
                          __________________________
                                Order of Dismissal
                           __________________________
Before QUINN, C.J., and CAMPBELL and HANCOCK, JJ.

       Appellants Daron J. Fettig and Deanna Marie Fettig Lancaster filed a notice of

appeal on March 7, 2012, but failed to pay the $175 filing fee required under Texas Rule

of Appellate Procedure 5. We informed counsel for appellants, by letter dated May 31,

2012, that the filing fee was outstanding and that the appeal would be dismissed unless

it was paid by June 11, 2012. TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(c); see Holt v. F.F. Enterprises, 990
S.W.2d 756 (Tex. App.–Amarillo 1998, pet. ref’d). The fee has not paid to date. Nor

does the record show them to be indigents or having requested leave to proceed as

indigents.
      Because appellants have failed to pay the requisite filing fee as directed by the

court, we dismiss the appeal pursuant to Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 42.3(c).
