           This appeal is before the Court on its own motion to determine whether it should be

dismissed for want of prosecution. Finding that the Appellant has not paid the $205 filing fee or

shown Appellant is excused from paying the filing fee, we dismiss the appeal for want of

prosecution.

           On May 3, 2021, the Clerk of the Court sent a second request for payment of the $205 case

filing fee. The letter notified Appellant that failure to pay the case filing fee within 20 days could

result in dismissal of the appeal for want of prosecution pursuant to TEX.R.APP.P. 42.3(b) and (c).

As of this date, Appellant has not paid the filing fee or otherwise shown it is excused from paying
