San Antonio, Texas
April 7, 2022
No. 04-21-00533-CV
IN THE ESTATE OF MAGDALENE B. MZYK, DECEASED
From the 81st Judicial District Court, Karnes County, Texas
Trial Court No. 21-01-00010-CVK
Honorable Joel B. Johnson, Judge Presiding
ORDER
On March 2, 2022, we abated this appeal and remanded it to the trial court for entry of
a final judgment. We ordered appellant “to ensure that a supplemental clerk’s record with a final,
appealable order or severance order is filed in this court within THIRTY DAYS of the date of
this order.” We also ordered appellant “to file a report informing the court of the status of this
case” if the trial court did not sign a final judgment within that time. On March 4, 2022,
appellant filed a report indicating that the trial court had not yet signed a final order, but the
parties are in the process of scheduling a hearing and “[i]t is anticipated that a final judgment
will be signed within 30 days from the date of this Report.” Appellant requested that we continue
the abatement “pending the trial court’s disposition of the parties’ respective claims for
attorney’s fees and entry of final judgment.”
After consideration, we GRANT appellant’s request and extend the abatement of this
appeal until May 17, 2022. We ORDER the parties to file a status update by May 17, 2022. We
ORDER that this case will be reinstated on the court’s docket by May 23, 2022.
