to pay the filing fee required by Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 5. See TEX. R. APP. P. 5 (“A

party who is not excused by statute or these rules from paying costs must pay—at the time an item

is presented for filing—whatever fees are required by statute or Supreme Court order.”). Our order

instructed appellant to, on or before April 5, 2021, either (1) pay the applicable filing fee for this

appeal, or (2) provide written proof to this court that she is excused by statute or rule from paying
                                                                                    04-21-00079-CV

the filing fee. See TEX. R. APP. P. 20.1; see also TEX. R. APP. P. 5. We notified appellant that if

she failed to respond within the time period provided, this appeal would be dismissed. See TEX.

R. APP. P. 5, 42.3(c). Appellant failed to respond to our order. Therefore, we dismiss this appeal.

See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(c). Costs of appeal are taxed against appellant.
