MEMORANDUM OPINION

            This Court has been notified that a petition for bankruptcy concerning appellee Charles Bishop has been filed in the United States Bankruptcy Court, Eastern District of Texas, Sherman Division, under cause number 05-44129. Pursuant to 11 U.S.C.A. § 362 (West 2004), further action in this cause is automatically stayed.

            Accordingly, for administrative purposes, this case is abated and will be treated as closed. Any party may reinstate by promptly filing a motion with an attached certified copy of the order showing that the automatic bankruptcy stay has been lifted or terminated and specifying what further action, if any, is required from this Court. In the event of reinstatement, any period that began to run and had not expired at the time of suspension will begin anew when the proceeding is reinstated.
