Molly Rivera v. EKRE of TX, LLC

Dismissed and Memorandum Opinion filed April 1, 2026

In The

Fifteenth Court of Appeals

NO. 15-26-00050-CV

MOLLY RIVERA, Appellant
V.

EKRE OF TX, LLC, Appellee

On Appeal from the County Court at Law No. 5
Williamson County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 25-2252-CC5

MEMORANDUM OPINION

On January 20, 2026, appellant, Molly Rivera, filed a notice of appeal. To
date, our records show that appellant has not paid the appellate filing fee. See Tex. R.
App. P. 5 (requiring payment of fees in civil cases unless party is excused by
statute or by appellate rules from paying costs); Tex. Gov’t Code § 51.207 (appellate
fees and costs).

On February 4, 2026, the clerk of this court notified appellant that unless she
paid the filing fee, the appeal was subject to dismissal without further notice. On
March 5, 2026, appellant was sent a second notice that unless she paid the filing
fee within 10 days or otherwise established her right to proceed without payment,
the appeal was subject to dismissal. Appellant has not paid the filing fee, sought
leave to proceed without payment of court costs, or otherwise responded to the
court’s order. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(c)
(allowing involuntary dismissal of case because appellant has failed to comply
with notice from clerk requiring response or other action within specified time).
We further dismiss appellee’s motion to dismiss the appeal as moot.

PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Chief Justice Brister and Justices Field and Farris.
