Court of Civil Appeals of Texas · Decided September 20, 2019

DCP Sand Hills Pipeline, LLC v. San Miguel Electric Cooperative, Inc.

Opinion

Fourth Court of Appeals San Antonio, Texas September 20, 2019 No. 04-19-00288-CV DCP SAND HILLS PIPELINE, LLC, Appellant v. SAN MIGUEL ELECTRIC COOPERATIVE, INC., Appellee From the 36th Judicial District Court, McMullen County, Texas Trial Court No. M-16-0033-CV-A Honorable Starr Boldrick Bauer, Judge Presiding

ORDER Appellant has filed an Emergency Motion to Extend Time for Enforcement of Injunction, asking this court to extend the time in which appellant must remove its pipeline pursuant to the trial court’s final judgment in light of what appellant argues is appellee’s delay in posting a letter of credit as a reverse-supersedeas bond. “Even after the trial court’s plenary power expires, the trial court has continuing jurisdiction to . . . if circumstances change, modify the amount or type of security required to continue the suspension of a judgment’s execution.” TEX. R. APP. P. 24.3.

Because the trial court has continuing jurisdiction to address appellant’s concern, appellant should seek relief from the trial court. Accordingly, appellant’s emergency motion is DENIED.
