           ANGELICA ALVAREZ AND BLOCK, INC., Appellants
                                        V.
                              HS&D LLC, Appellee

                    On Appeal from the 189th District Court
                             Harris County, Texas
                       Trial Court Case No. 2022-65488

                          MEMORANDUM OPINION

      The filing fee has not been paid. On July 11, 2023, the Court notified the

parties that the filing fee had not been paid and that the appeal might be dismissed

for nonpayment. On October 6, 2023, the clerk’s record was filed and it does not

contain a statement of inability to afford payment of court costs. Appellants have
neither paid the required filing fee nor established indigence for purposes of

appellate costs. See TEX. R. APP. P. 5, 20.1; see also TEX. GOV’T CODE ANN.

§§ 51.207, 51.208, 51.941(a), 101.041; Order Regarding Fees Charged in the

Supreme Court, in Civil Cases in the Courts of Appeals, and Before the Judicial

Panel on Multi-District Litigation, Misc. Docket No. 15-9158 (Tex. Aug. 28, 2015).

After being notified that the appeal was subject to dismissal, appellants failed to

respond. See TEX. R. APP. P. 5 (allowing enforcement of rule); 42.3(c) (allowing

involuntary dismissal of case).

      Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(c). Any

pending motions are dismissed as moot.

                                  PER CURIAM
Panel consists of Justices Kelly, Hightower, and Guerra.
