MEMORANDUM OPINION

          Appellant Michael G. Washington has neither established indigence, nor paid
all the required fees.  See Tex. R. App. P. 5 (requiring payment of fees in civil cases
unless indigent), 20.1 (listing requirements for establishing indigence); see also Tex.
Gov’t Code Ann. §§ 51.207, 51.941(a), 101.041 (Vernon 2005 & Supp. 2008)
(listing fees in court of appeals).  
          On May 20, 2008, the trial court sustained the County Clerk’s contest to
appellant’s affidavit of indigence.  After being notified that this appeal was subject
to dismissal, appellant did not pay the necessary fees.  See Tex. R. App. P. 5 (allowing
enforcement of rule); 42.3(c) (allowing involuntary dismissal of case).
          The appeal is dismissed for nonpayment of all required fees.  All pending
motions are dismissed as moot.PER CURIAM
Panel consists of Justices Keyes, Alcala, and Hanks.
