Fourth Court of Appeals San Antonio, Texas August 26, 2016 No. 04-16-00172-CV Susan Lori WIEDENFELD, Appellant v. Charles Alan MARKGRAF, Appellee From the 224th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2015-CI-12374 Honorable Cathleen M. Stryker, Judge Presiding

ORDER Appellant filed a motion requesting this court to compel the trial court to file Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law.

“[A] party may request the court to state in writing its findings of fact and conclusions of law.” TEX. R. CIV. P. 296. “Such a request shall be entitled ‘Request for Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law’ and shall be filed within twenty days after judgment is signed.” Id. If the trial court fails to file its findings of fact and conclusions of law within twenty days after a timely request is filed, the party that made the request “shall, within thirty days after filing the original request,” file a ‘Notice of Past Due Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law’.” TEX. R. CIV. P. 297.

The record before this court shows Appellant timely filed her first request on January 21, 2016. However, the record does not show Appellant filed the ‘Notice of Past Due Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law’ as required by Rule 297.

Therefore, Appellant’s motion is DENIED.
