March 19, 2013, we notified appellant that the filing fee was due no later than

March 29, 2013. The Court’s notice was returned, with the following marked on

the envelope: “return to sender, attempted – not known, unable to forward.” On

April 10, 2013, we notified appellant that this appeal could be dismissed unless he

paid the filing fee on or before May 10, 2013. Appellant has neither paid the filing

fee nor responded to the Court’s notices nor provided us with any other address or

means of contacting him. See TEX. R. APP. P. 5; 42.3(c).

      Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for nonpayment of all required fees. We

dismiss any pending motions as moot.
