Harold Haswell v. Cach, Llc

DISMISS; Opinion Filed June 29, 2021 S In The Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-16-01277-CV HAROLD HASWELL, Appellant V. CACH, LLC, Appellee On Appeal from the County Court at Law No. 4 Collin County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 004-01615-2016 MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Justices Schenck, Reichek, and Carlyle Opinion by Justice Schenck On October 25, 2016, Harold Haswell filed his notice of appeal of the trial court’s judgment in favor of appellee CACH, LLC. After Haswell filed his brief, CACH informed the Court that it had filed for bankruptcy. Accordingly, we abated the appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 8.2. On October 11, 2019, we received CACH’s motion to reinstate and dismiss the appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 8.3. However, as we noted by letter dated October 14, 2019, Haswell’s signature was required and allowed him an opportunity to file an amended motion complying with the rule. On November 6, 2019, the Court granted CACH’s motion insofar as the appeal was reinstated but denied insofar as it sought dismissal. On May 27, 2021, we sent a letter to Haswell, informing him that because he had not communicated with this Court since February 10, 2017, we would dismiss his appeal for want of prosecution unless, within ten days of the date of the letter, he responded with cause as to why the appeal should not be dismissed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(b)(c). Haswell has not responded or otherwise communicated with this Court since. Accordingly, we dismiss his appeal. See id. /David J. Schenck/ DAVID J.
