Abatement Order filed March 12, 2020
In The Fourteenth Court of Appeals ____________ NO. 14-20-00134-CV ____________ IN THE MATTER OF THE MARRIAGE OF TERESA LEE NUNCIO AND DAVID NUNCIO
On Appeal from the 310th District Court Harris County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 2018-76546 ABATEMENT ORDER On March 9, 2020, appellant Teresa Lee Miller notified this court that she petitioned for voluntary bankruptcy protection on February 10, 2020 in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas under case number 20- 31023. 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 Justices Christopher, Wise, and Zimmerer.
