The motion is opposed by appellee, Pablo Campos. Having reviewed and fully considered appellant’s motion to stay the trial court proceedings, we GRANT the motion and ORDER all proceedings in trial court cause number 2015CCV-61678-2 to be STAYED pending further order of this Court. IT IS SO ORDERED. PER CURIAM Delivered and filed the 3rd day of June, 2016. . 2
