Gaines County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 11-02-16184
O R D E R
Each appeal is an interlocutory appeal from an order denying a motion to compel arbitration. Appellees in each case have filed in this court an opposed motion to correct the reporter’s record, which is shared in these appeals, urging most notably that some of the exhibits admitted into evidence were missing from the record. Appellees also assert other minor objections to the reporter’s record. We abate these appeals.
Appellees do not state in their motions which exhibits are missing, but in an attachment to the appendix, the trial court references “Plaintiffs’ Exhibits one through ten” as the allegedly missing exhibits. We note that the reporter’s record filed in this court contains Plaintiffs’ Exhibits Nos. 1 through 10.
However, because the parties are unable to agree and because this court is unable to determine at this time what, if any, exhibits are missing from the reporter’s record, we will abate these appeals so that the trial court can conduct a hearing and settle the dispute pursuant to Tex. R. App. P. 34.6(e). Pursuant to Rule 34.6(e)(2), the trial court is directed to settle the dispute and, if it finds any inaccuracies in the text or the exhibits, to direct the court reporter to file any corrections in this court. The trial court clerk is directed to file supplemental clerk’s records containing any findings made by the trial court, and the court reporter is directed to file a supplemental reporter’s record from the hearing. These records are due to be filed in this court on or before August 1, 2011.
The appeals are abated.
