KAREN KRISTINE SILVIO, Appellant v. JASON B. OSTROM AND NICOLE K. SAIN, Appellees
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Appellant, Karen Kristine Silvio, proceeding pro se, timely appealed from the trial court's final judgment, signed on May 9, 2014, after moving for a new trial. See TEX. R. APP. P. 26.1(a)(1). However, appellant has neither paid nor made arrangements to pay the filing fee or the fee for preparing the clerk's record and she has not established indigence for purposes of appellate costs. See TEX. R. APP. P. 5, 20.1, 37.3(b). After being notified by this Court's Order and Notice of Intent to Dismiss for Want of Prosecution on August 15, 2016, which reinstated this case after appellant's bankruptcy case had been dismissed, that this appeal was subject to dismissal for want of prosecution for failure to pay the required fees, appellant did not timely respond.1 See TEX. R. APP. P. 5, 37.3(b), 42.3(b), (c).
Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal for nonpayment of all required fees and for want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 5, 37.3(b), 42.3(b), (c). We dismiss any pending motions as moot.
FOOTNOTES
1. Although appellant filed a motion to establish indigence in this Court on September 8, 2016, appellant failed to timely respond after this Court ordered her to use the new form required by the Texas Supreme Court. See TEX. R. APP. P. 20.1(c).
