TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN

NO. 03-96-00195-CV

In the Matter of J. M.

FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF TRAVIS COUNTY, 98TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT

NO. J-13,594, HONORABLE W. JEANNE MEURER, JUDGE PRESIDING

PER CURIAM

	Appellant filed a motion to dismiss the appeal.  We grant the motion.  Tex. R.
App. P. 59(a)(1).  We note that appellant perfected appeal by a "Notice of Appeal," which is not
a correct perfecting instrument in a civil case.  Although the appeal is dismissed before appellant
has substituted a correct perfecting instrument, inasmuch as he has not shown he is indigent, the
filing fee for the transcript remains due.

Before Justices Powers, Jones and B. A. Smith
Dismissed on Appellant's Motion
