Richard Speirs v. Union Pacific Railroad Company
Richard Speirs v. Union Pacific Railroad Company
Opinion
Fourth Court of Appeals San Antonio, Texas July 25, 2018 No. 04-18-00343-CV Richard SPEIRS, Appellant v. UNION PACIFIC RAILROAD COMPANY, Appellee From the 408th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2009CI17924 Honorable Angelica Jimenez, Judge Presiding
ORDER On July 2, 2018, we ordered Appellant Richard Speirs to show cause why this court has jurisdiction in this appeal. Appellant filed a response, and Appellant’s son sent a letter in support of his father.
Having reevaluated the record, we conclude that we have jurisdiction in this appeal. We do not determine whether Appellant’s bill of review was timely filed; that question may be addressed with the merits of the appeal.
We reinstate the appellate timetable.
The clerk’s record has been filed. The court reporter from the 2013 trial advised the court that the record from that proceeding is no longer available. Appellant’s docketing statement does not indicate that a record was taken at the April 24, 2018 hearing. Therefore, the appellate record appears to be complete.
Appellant’s brief is due within THIRTY DAYS of the date of this order. We caution Appellant that his brief must fully comply with the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure. See, e.g., TEX. R. APP. P. 9.4 (form), 38.1 (Appellant’s brief).
