DISTRICT COURT OF TARRANT COUNTY

                  MEMORANDUM OPINION[1] AND JUDGMENT 
 
                                              ------------

On November 13, 2008, this court
issued an order affirming the trial court=s order
sustaining the contest to Appellant Robin W. Eisenhauer=s
affidavit of indigence.  In that order,
we provided that Appellant=s
failure to pay the required filing fee for an appeal of $175.00 on or before
Monday November 24, 2008, would result in the dismissal of this case for want
of prosecution.[2]  We have not received the filing fee.
On November 24, 2008, we received Appellant=s motion
for rehearing of our November 13, 2008 order. 
Even though Appellant did not pay the required $10.00 filing fee for the
motion, we have reviewed his motion for rehearing in the interest of justice,
and it is DENIED.
Accordingly, because Appellant by failing to pay
the required filing fee of $175.00 has failed to comply with a requirement of
the rules of appellate procedure and the Texas Supreme Court=s order
of August 28, 2007,[3]
we dismiss this appeal.[4]
Appellant shall pay all costs of this appeal, for
which let execution issue.[5]
