RE:	A97A2124 .	Atlanta Xcitement v. Hodard

Dear Mr. Quint:

Our records reflect that as of this date filing costs have not yet been paid in the above styled case. Enclosed please find the bill for these costs.

OCGA §5-6-4 and Rule 5 of this Court require that, absent a proper pauper's affidavit, costs must be paid upon filing of the original brief or application. Costs are due even if the case has been subsequently withdrawn, or dismissed, even if the withdrawl or dismissal occurs prior to the brief having been filed.

If payment has been made, please provide this office with a copy of your canceled check, a copy of this office's receipt, or this office's receipt number. All correspondence or telephone inquiries should be directed to the Deputy Clerk.

If is imperative that we hear from you within ten days of the date of this letter to clear up our records in this matter. Your anticipated cooperation is greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,

William L. Martin, III
