BISHOP AND PINNACLE POTASH INTERNATIONAL, LTD, Appellee

On Appeal from the 269th District Court Harris County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 2008-29234 ORDER The reporter’s record in this case was due June 14, 2012, 2012. See Tex. R. App. P. 35.1. On June 19, 2012, this court granted the court reporters request for extension of time to file the record until July 16, 2012. To date, the record has not been filed with the court. Because the reporter’s record was not filed within the time prescribed in the first request, the court GRANTS your second request and issues the following order.

We order Kathleen Keese, the official court reporter, to file the record in this appeal on or before August 15, 2012. No further extension will be entertained absent exceptional circumstances. The trial and appellate courts are jointly responsible for ensuring that the appellate record is timely filed. See Tex. R. App. P. 35.3(c). If Kathleen Keese does not timely file the record as ordered, the Court may issue an order directing the trial court to conduct a hearing to determine the reason for the failure to file the record.
