Foster v. West, No. 02-16-00250-CV (Feb. 9, 2017) (Meier, J., joined by Gabriel and Sudderth, JJ.).

Held:  We dismiss Foster’s appeal because as an indigent inmate proceeding pro se, he was required to comply with the requirements of civil practice and remedies code chapter 14, which now expressly applies to an appeal in an appellate court, but he failed to do so by filing an incomplete affidavit or declaration of previous filings.
