From the 81st Judicial District Court, La Salle County, Texas
Trial Court No. 16-07-00095-CVL
Honorable Susan D. Reed, Judge Presiding
ORDER
The docketing statement for this appeal is past due. See Tex. R. App. P. 32.1(a)
(providing an appellant in a civil case shall file a docketing statement promptly upon filing the
notice of appeal). We order appellants to file the docketing statement within 10 days of this
order. A failure to comply with this order may result in this appeal being dismissed without
further notice. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(c).
Furthermore, one of the court reporters in this case has filed a notice of late record stating
appellant has not requested and arranged to pay for the reporter’s record. See Tex. R. App. P.
34.6(b)(1) (“At or before the time for perfecting the appeal, the appellant must request in writing
that the official reporter prepare the reporter’s record.”); id. R. 35.3(b)(2), (3) (providing the
court reporter is not required to file a reporter’s record unless the appellant has requested the
reporter’s record and “the party responsible for paying for the preparation of the reporter’s record
has paid the reporter’s fee, or has made satisfactory arrangements with the reporter to pay the
fee, or is entitled to appeal without paying the fee.”).
We order appellants to provide written proof to this court by September 3, 2019 that (1)
the reporter’s record, if any is sought by appellants, has been properly requested, and (2) either
paid or arranged to pay the reporter’s fee or is entitled to the record without prepayment of the
reporter’s fee. See id. R. 20.1, 34.6(b)(1), 35.3(b). If appellants fail to provide such proof by the
date ordered, appellant’s brief will be due by October 14, 2019, and the court will only consider
those issues or points raised in appellants’ brief that do not require a reporter’s record for a
decision. See id. R. 37.3(c).
