Opinion
Abatement Order filed January 28, 2021.
In The Fourteenth Court of Appeals ____________ NO. 14-20-00486-CV ____________ CLAYTON WOODS HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION INC., Appellant V. THE CWEREN LAW FIRM PLLC, Appellee
On Appeal from the County Civil Court at Law No. 4 Harris County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 1141556-101 ABATEMENT ORDER Notice was filed on January 26, 2021 that appellant is in bankruptcy. Tex. R. App. P. 8.1. According to the notice, on January 25, 2021, appellant, petitioned for voluntary bankruptcy protection in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas under case number 21-30217-7. 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 Bourliot, Zimmerer, and Spain.
