                               MEMORANDUM OPINION
                 Before Chief Justice Wright and Justices Lang-Miers and Stoddart
                                 Opinion by Chief Justice Wright
          Before the Court is appellee’s January 13, 2015 motion to dismiss the appeal for want of
prosecution. Appellee contends the appeal should be dismissed because appellant has failed to
pay the required filing fee. Appellant did not file a response to the motion to dismiss.
          In a post-card notice dated December 29, 2014, the Court notified appellant that the
required $195 filing fee was past due. We instructed appellant to pay the filing fee within ten
days and cautioned him that failure to do so will result in dismissal of the appeal without further
notice.    As of today’s date, appellant has not paid the filing fee.      Accordingly, we grant
appellee’s motion and dismiss the appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(b) & (c).
