YOUNGBLOOM AND IN THE
INTEREST OF M. G. Y. & B. M. Y., § CHEROKEE COUNTY, TEXAS

MEMORANDUM OPINION
PER CURIAM
This appeal is being dismissed for failure to comply with a requirement of the appellate
rules, a court order, or a notice from the clerk requiring a response or other action within a
specified time. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(c).
A party who is not excused by statute or the appellate rules from paying costs must pay--
at the time an item is presented for filing--whatever fees are required by statute or Texas
Supreme Court order. TEX. R. APP. P. 5; see TEX. R. APP. P. 20.1. An appellate court may
enforce Rule 5 by any order that is just. TEX. R. APP. P. 5. After giving ten days’ notice, an
appellate court may dismiss an appeal because the appellant failed to comply with a requirement
of the appellate rules, a court order, or a notice from the clerk requiring a response or other
action within a specified time. TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(c).
On June 9, 2023, the Clerk of this Court notified Appellant, Michael Alrik Youngbloom,
Sr., that the filing fee in this appeal is due and that the appeal would be subject to dismissal if the
fee was not paid on or before June 20. The date for remitting the filing fee passed, and Appellant
has not paid the fee or otherwise shown that he is excused from paying the fee.
Because Appellant failed, after notice, to comply with Rule 5, the appeal is dismissed.
See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(c).1
Opinion delivered June 30, 2023.
Panel consisted of Worthen, C.J., Hoyle, J., and Neeley, J.
1 We also note that Appellant has not filed the required docketing statement. See TEX. R. APP. P. 32.1.
