                            IN THE COURT OF APPEALS

            TWELFTH COURT OF APPEALS DISTRICT

                                           TYLER, TEXAS
ABDOULIE SARR,                                             §    APPEAL FROM THE 241ST
APPELLANT

V.                                                         §    JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT OF

BANK OF AMERICA,
APPELLEE                                          § SMITH COUNTY, TEXAS
                                         MEMORANDUM OPINION
                                             PER CURIAM
         This appeal is being dismissed for failure to comply with the Texas Rules of Appellate
Procedure. See TEX . R. APP. P. 42.3. Pursuant to Rule 32.1, Appellant’s docketing statement was
due to have been filed at the time the appeal was perfected, i.e., June 26, 2009. See TEX . R. APP. P.
32.1. On June 26, 2009, this court notified Appellant that he should file a docketing statement
immediately if he had not already done so. On the same date, by separate letter, this court notified
Appellant that the filing fee was due on or before July 6, 2009.
         Because Appellant did not file the docketing statement as requested in our June 26, 2009
letter, this court issued a second notice on July 7, 2009 advising Appellant that the docketing
statement was past due. The notice also advised Appellant that the filing fee in the appeal was due
to have been paid on or before July 6, 2009, but had not been received. See TEX . R. APP. P. 5. The
notice further provided that unless the docketing statement and filing fee were filed on or before
July 17, 2009, the appeal would be presented for dismissal in accordance with Texas Rule of
Appellate Procedure 42.3. The date for filing the docketing statement and the filing fee have passed,
and Appellant has not complied with the court’s request. Because Appellant has failed, after notice,
to comply with Rules 5 and 32.1, the appeal is dismissed. See TEX . R. APP. P. 42.3(c).
Opinion delivered July 24, 2009.
Panel consisted of Worthen, C.J., Griffith, J., and Hoyle, J.
