Abatement Order filed October 22, 2019

In The Fourteenth Court of Appeals ____________ NO. 14-19-00727-CV ____________ AMERICAN WORKERS INSURANCE SERVICES, INC., ASSOCIATION HEALTH CARE MANAGEMENT, INC., Appellants V. INSURETY CAPITAL, LLC, Appellee

On Appeal from the 215th District Court Harris County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 2019-53545 ABATEMENT ORDER Notice was filed on October 15, 2019 that appellant is in bankruptcy. Tex. R. App. P. 8.1. According to the notice, on October 14, 2019, appellants American Workers Insurance Services, Inc. and Association Health Care Management, Inc. petitioned for voluntary bankruptcy protection in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas under case number 19-44208-mxm11. A bankruptcy suspends the appeal from the date when the bankruptcy petition is filed until the appellate court reinstates the appeal in accordance with federal law. Tex. R. App. P. 8.2. Accordingly, we ORDER the appeal abated.

When a case has been suspended by a bankruptcy filing, a party may move the appellate court to reinstate the appeal if permitted by federal law or the bankruptcy court. Tex. R. App. P. 8.3. If the bankruptcy court has lifted or terminated the stay, a certified copy of the order must be attached to the motion. Id. A party filing a motion to reinstate shall specify what further action, if any, is required from this court when the appeal is reinstated. See Tex. R. App. P. 10.1(a).

For administrative purposes only, and without surrendering jurisdiction, the appeal is abated and treated as a closed case until further order of this court.

PER CURIAM Panel consists of Chief Justice Frost and Justices Wise and Hassan.
