Order filed, April 9, 2012.

In The Fourteenth Court of Appeals ____________ NO. 14-12-00105-CV ____________ DONALD W. SOWELL, Appellant V. INTERNATIONAL INTERESTS, LP, Appellee

On Appeal from the 334th District Court Harris County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 2009-07184

ORDER The reporter’s record in this case was due March 11, 2012, 2012. See Tex. R. App. P. 35.1. On March 14, 2012, this court notified the court reporter to file the record within 15 days.

The record has not been filed with the court. Because the reporter’s record has not been filed timely, we issue the following order.

We order Susan Leediker, the official court reporter, to file the record in this appeal within 30 days of the date of this order. 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 Susan Leediker does not timely file the record as ordered, we will issue an order directing the trial court to conduct a hearing to determine the reason for the failure to file the record.
