By letter dated October 14, 2014, this Court notified Dark Puppet, LLC that the filing fee of $195.00 had not been paid and that failure to submit payment within ten days might result in dismissal of the appeal. Dark Puppet, LLC has not responded, paid the filing fee nor made other arrangements for the discharge of the clerk’s filing fee. See TEX. R. APP. P. 12.1(b). Unless a party is excused from paying a filing fee, the Clerk of this Court is required to collect filing fees set by statute or the Texas Supreme Court when an item is presented for filing. See TEX. R. APP. P. 5 and 12.1(b). Although the filing of a notice of appeal invokes this Court’s jurisdiction, if a party fails to follow the prescribed rules of appellate procedure, the appeal may be dismissed. TEX. R. APP. P. 25.1(b). Accordingly, this appeal is dismissed for failure to comply with a directive from this Court requiring action within a specified time. TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(c). Patrick A.
