IN RE: QUINCY B. JOHNSON, JR.,
RELATOR             §        ORIGINAL PROCEEDINGS

                                                         §
                                           MEMORANDUM OPINION
                                               PER CURIAM
Relator’s petitions for writ of mandamus are being dismissed because Relator has failed to comply
with the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3.

       On December 7, 2015, this court sent a written request that Relator remit the filing fee for
the mandamus petition in these proceedings on or before December 17, 2015.1 However, Relator
did not remit the filing fees. On December 18, 2015, the court sent a second notice informing
Relator that the filing fees had not been paid as requested. Relator was further notified that his
petitions for writ of mandamus would be dismissed in accordance with Texas Rule of Appellate
Procedure 42.3 unless the filing fees were received on or before December 28, 2015. See TEX.

R. APP. P. 5. The December 28 deadline has passed, and Relator has not complied with the court’s
request. Because Relator has failed, after notice, to pay the filing fees in compliance with Rule 5,
Relator’s petitions for writ of mandamus are dismissed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(c).

Opinion delivered December 30, 2015.
