Maxine Adams and Cecil Adams v. Rebecca Ross
Opinion
COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FIRST DISTRICT OF TEXAS AT HOUSTON ORDER Appellate case name: Cecil Adams and Maxine Adams v. Rebecca Ross Appellate case number: 01-11-00098-CV Trial court case number: 980231 Trial court: Co Civil Ct at Law No 1 of Harris County On June 14, 2012, we affirmed the trial court’s order sustaining the county clerk’s contest to appellants’ affidavit of indigence, ordered appellants, Maxine Adams and Cecil Adams, to pay the filing fee for this appeal and the fee for remainder of the clerk’s record, and abated this case.
Appellants paid the filing fee on July 1, 2012 and July 27, 2012 and a supplemental clerk’s record has now been filed. Therefore, we REINSTATE this case on the Court’s active docket.
Further, appellants have filed an “Unopposed Motion to Strike 1st Appellate Brief and Motion Reset [sic] Appellate Time Line.” Because appellants’ brief, filed March 2, 2012, was filed prior to the filing of the complete appellate record, the filing of the brief was premature.
See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.6(a). Accordingly, we GRANT appellants’ motion and STRIKE appellants’ brief filed March 2, 2012.
Appellant’s brief is ORDERED to be filed within 30 days of the date of this order. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.6(a).
Appellee’s brief, if any, is ORDERED to be filed within 30 days of the filing of appellant’s brief. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.6(b).
