v.

The State of Texas, ex rel. El Paso County Attorney Christina Sanchez, Appellee

On Appeal from the 448th District Court
El Paso County, Texas
Trial Court No. 2025DCV5439

M E MO RA N D UM O PI NI O N

Appellants, Boss Lady Pub and Maria Elena Olvera, filed a notice of appeal from the trial

court’s order on March 26, 2026, but neither paid the appellate filing fees nor established a right

to proceed without payment of costs. See Tex. R. App. P. 5, 20.1; see also Tex. Gov’t Code Ann.

§§ 51.207, 51.208, 51.851(b), 51.941(a); Order Regarding Fees Charged in the Supreme Court, in
Civil Cases in the Courts of Appeals, Before the Judicial Panel on Multi-District Litigation, and in

the Business Court, Misc. Docket No. 24-9047 (Tex. July 26, 2024).

Under the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure, the fees for appealing to a court of appeals

are due at the time a notice of appeal is presented to the appellate court for filing. See Tex. R. App.

P. 5. On March 27, 2026, the Clerk of this Court notified Appellants that this appeal could be

dismissed if they failed to pay the filing fees by April 9, 2026. The Clerk further notified Appellants

that the failure to comply with a Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure, an order of this Court, or a

notice from the Clerk requiring a response within a specified time could result in dismissal of this

appeal. Appellants neither paid the filing fees nor otherwise responded to the Clerk’s notice.

We dismiss this appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 5, 42.3(c). We dismiss any pending motions as

moot.
