M E M O R A N D U M   O P I N I O N

This is an appeal from a judgment signed December 9, 1994. On June 1, 1995, this court abated this appeal because appellees, John S. McKown and Theresa McKown, petitioned for voluntary bankruptcy in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas, under cause number 95-43608-G3-13. See Tex. R. App. P. 8.2. 

Through the Public Access to Court Electronic Records (PACER) system, the court has learned that the bankruptcy case was closed on June 15, 2000. The parties failed to advise this court of the bankruptcy court action.

On November 19, 2009, this court issued an order stating that unless any party to the appeal filed a motion demonstrating good cause to retain the appeal within twenty days of the date of the order, this appeal would be dismissed for want of prosecution. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(b). No response was filed. 

Accordingly, we reinstate the appeal and order it dismissed.

 

PER CURIAM

 

Panel consists of Chief Justice Hedges and Justices Anderson and Christopher.
