For The

First District of Texas

NO. 01-06-00325-CV

SAVANNAH ROBINSON, Appellant

V.

CITICORP VENDOR FINANCE, INC., Appellee

On Appeal from the 149th District Court

Brazoria County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. 32196

MEMORANDUM OPINION

On August 26, 2007, this Court abated this appeal because one or more of the parties to the appeal, who was a defendant in the trial court, filed a suggestion of bankruptcy. ⁽¹⁾

Through the Public Access to Court Electronic Records (PACER) system, the Court has learned that the final decree in the bankruptcy proceeding was issued on March 17, 2009 and the case was closed.

On April 6, 2009, the Clerk of this Court sent notice to all parties that unless within 20 days any party to the appeal filed a motion to retain the appeal, this appeal would be reinstated and dismissed for want of prosecution.

We received no response to this letter. Therefore, we lift the abatement and reinstate the appeal, and we dismiss this appeal for want of prosecution. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3 (b) (providing that appellate courts may dismiss appeal for want of prosecution after giving 10 days' notice to all parties). Any pending motions are dismissed as moot.

PER CURIUM

Panel consists of Chief Justice Radack and Justices Taft and Sharp.

1. In re Savannah Lina Robinson, Debtor, 07-20459 (Bankr. S.D. Tex. filed August 26, 2007).
