Before CAMPBELL and HANCOCK and PIRTLE, JJ.

ABATEMENT AND REMAND

Appellant, Wesley Wren Massey, an inmate proceeding pro se and in forma pauperis, appeals the trial court’s entry of an Order to Withdraw Funds, entered on March 16, 2012. That order, which directs the Texas Department of Criminal Justice to withhold from his inmate account the sum of $231 for “court costs, fees and/or fines and/or restitution” related to an underlying proceeding styled In the Matter of the Marriage of Wesley Wren Massey and Irene Gonzales Massey, was apparently entered sua sponte and without notice or hearing.*fn2 The Order to Withdraw Funds does not contain an attached Bill of Costs or other explanation as to what the withholding amount was for or how the dollar amount was derived. While only a few documents have been filed to date in this appeal, one of those documents, an Order of Dismissal, does assess costs of court against Appellant. It does not, however, recite the amount of those costs.
