RE: 05-95-00733-CV
Earl Stephenson v. SMS Financial II
Counsel and Ms. Concannon:
This appeal was abated on March 19, 1996 due to the filing of bankruptcy by appellant
Earl Stephenson. Since that date, the Court has had no communication from either party
regarding the status of the bankruptcy. Therefore, please notify the Court, within TEN DAYS
of the date of this letter, about whether the bankruptcy proceedings remain pending. If the
bankruptcy proceedings have been closed, then appellant is directed to file, within that ten-day
period, either a motion to dismiss the appeal or written verification that the appeal should
proceed. We appreciate your attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
/s/ Lisa Matz, Clerk of the Court
