V.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the 75th District Court
Liberty County, Texas
Trial Cause No. CV1408178
________________________________________________________ _____________
ORDER
Upon receiving the notice of appeal filed by Armin Martinez, we questioned
whether a final, appealable order had been signed in the underlying forfeiture case.
In response to the Court’s inquiry, Martinez filed a motion to abate the appeal for
sixty days in order to provide an opportunity to cure the jurisdictional defect. See
Tex. R. App. P. 27.2. The State did not file an opposition to the motion.
1
It is, therefore, ORDERED that the appeal is abated for sixty days. The
appellate timetables for the record and briefing are stayed during the abatement.
The appeal will be reinstated without further order of the Court in sixty days, at
which time the appeal will be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction unless before that
date we receive a supplemental clerk’s record containing a final judgment, an order
of severance, or other order showing that the order is immediately appealable.
ORDER ENTERED January 8, 2015.
