Lone Star Steel AKA Brad Standlee Dba Lone Star Steel v. Sanders Plumbing, Inc.

IN THE TENTH COURT OF APPEALS No. 10-13-00129-CV LONE STAR STEEL AKA BRAD STANDLEE DBA LONE STAR STEEL, Appellant v. SANDERS PLUMBING, INC., Appellee From the 249th District Court Johnson County, Texas Trial Court No. 200900254 ORDER This appeal was abated on October 10, 2013. At the appellee’s request, it is now reinstated. No brief has been filed for appellant. Appellant had been notified by letter dated September 24, 2013 that the Court would dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution unless, within 21 days from the date of the letter, appellant or any party desiring to continue the appeal filed a response showing grounds for continuing the appeal. The time for complying with this notice had not expired by the time the appeal was abated. Because the abatment order provided that any deadline that began to run and had not expired by the date of the order would begin anew as of the date the appeal is reinstated, appellant’s time to file a response to the Court’s September 24, 2013 letter begins anew. Accordingly, the Court will dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution unless, within 21 days from the date of this Order, appellant or any party desiring to continue the appeal files a response showing grounds for continuing the appeal. PER CURIAM Before Chief Justice Gray, Justice Davis, and Justice Scoggins Appeal reinstated, response requested Order issued and filed November 7, 2013 Lone Star Steel v. Sanders Plumbing, Inc. Page 2
