DENNIS DEEN CHARTERS AND CATHY CHARTERS, INDIVIDUALLY

AND AS PERSONAL REPRESENTATIVES OF THE ESTATE OF DENNIS WADE CHARTERS, Appellee _______________________________________________________ ______________ On Appeal from the 60th District Court Jefferson County, Texas

Trial Cause No. B-196,107 ________________________________________________________ _____________ ORDER

The appellant, Entergy Arkansas, Inc., filed a motion to stay the trial during the pendency of its interlocutory appeal from an order denying a special appearance. See Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code Ann. § 51.014(a)(7) (West Supp. 2015). When an appeal from an interlocutory order is perfected, we may make such orders as are necessary to preserve the parties’ rights until disposition of the appeal. Tex. R. App. P. 29.3. After reviewing the motion and the response, we find that temporary orders are necessary to preserve the parties’ rights until disposition of the appeal.

It is ORDERED that the trial of Cause No. B-196,107 is STAYED until our Opinion issues or until further order of this Court. See Tex. R. App. P. 29.3.

ORDER ENTERED July 21, 2016.
