First District of Texas





NO. 01-03-00233-CV





BUTTERFLY KISSES FOUR, INC., Appellant


V.


ERIC SCHEFFEY AND KENDALL SCHEFFEY, Appellees





On Appeal from the 133rd District Court

Harris County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. 2001-38151





MEMORANDUM OPINION

          This is an appeal of a turnover order signed by the trial court after it rendered judgment for appellees, Eric and Kendall Scheffey, against appellant, Butterfly Kisses Four, Inc. (BK4) in a companion case on appeal before this Court. BK4 contends that the order violates the turnover statute because it provides relief against Victor and Kathy Brook, not BK4, who it claims are not the judgment debtors, and because the property has been ordered to be turned over directly to the Scheffeys instead of to a constable.

          The Scheffeys contend that BK4 has waived any complaint about the turnover order because BK4: (1) judicially admitted it was nothing more than the Brook family themselves; (2) did not oppose the application for turnover, respond to post-judgment discovery, appear at the hearing, or seek reconsideration of the turnover order; and (3) did not provide this Court with a record of the turnover proceedings.

          Without having the record of the turnover proceeding before us, we are unable to determine whether BK4 made its complaints to the trial court. Accordingly, we can only hold that it is raising these complaints for the first time on appeal, in contravention of the Rules of Appellate Procedure. See Tex. R. App. P. 33.1.

          We overrule BK4’s sole issue.

          We affirm the trial court’s order.
