Allen F. Calton v. Jason Newman, Lauren Tanner and Baker Botts, LLP

Order filed August 20, 2015 In The Fourteenth Court of Appeals ____________ NO. 14-15-00460-CV ____________ ALLEN F. CALTON, Appellant V. JASON NEWMAN, LAUREN TANNER AND BAKER BOTTS, LLP, Appellees On Appeal from the 152nd District Court Harris County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 2014-09348 ORDER This is an appeal from a judgment signed January 20, 2015. The clerk’s record has not been filed in this appeal. The District Clerk has informed this court that appellant did not pay for preparation of the clerk’s record. In response to notices from this court, appellant filed an affidavit of indigence, which this court referred to the trial court. We have been advised that a contest to the affidavit was filed, but have not been advised of the ruling on the contest. To determine whether appellant is entitled to proceed without the advance payment of costs, we issue the following order for a partial clerk’s record. We order the Harris County District Clerk to file a partial clerk’s record with the clerk of this court on or before September 21, 2015. In order that this court may ascertain its jurisdiction over the appeal, the partial clerk’s record shall contain (1) the judgment being appealed; (2) any motion for new trial or other post-judgment motion; and (3) the notice of appeal. In addition, the partial clerk’s record shall contain: (4) appellant’s affidavit of indigence; (5) the contest(s) to the affidavit of indigence, if any; (6) the trial court’s order ruling on any contest; (7) any other documents pertaining to the claim of indigence and the contests thereto.
