It is therefore ORDERED that the above-styled and numbered appeal be abated pending a ruling by the trial court on R.M.O.’s motion for new trial. All appellate deadlines will be stayed while the appeal is abated and until the appeal is reinstated. R.M.O. is directed to notify the Court if the trial court rules on the motion for new trial or if the motion for new trial is overruled by operation of law.

IT IS SO ORDERED this 11th day of March, 2014.
