In The

Eleventh Court of Appeals __________ No. 11-11-00262-CV __________ MR. W FIREWORKS, Appellant V. SOUTHWEST ROYALTIES, INC., Appellee

On Appeal from the 70th District Court Ector County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. A-123,890

ORDER Scott M. Tidwell filed a notice of appeal on behalf of Appellant, Mr. W Fireworks. It has come to this court’s attention that Tidwell’s license to practice law in this state has been suspended. Tidwell, however, is still listed as the attorney of record for Appellant in this cause. We abate this appeal and remand the cause to the trial court so that it may determine the status of the representation of Appellant.

The trial court is requested to determine whether Appellant is currently represented by counsel or will be obtaining new counsel in a timely manner and, if not, whether Appellant wishes to pursue this appeal without counsel. The trial court is directed to notify this court of its findings, including the name and address of Appellant’s new counsel—if any, on or before September 23, 2013.

This appeal is abated.
