Civil Action No. CV-18-00032-PHX-DGC

WAIVER OF THE SERVICE OF SUMMONS

To: Baron & Budd PC - Dallas, TX

(Name of plaintiff’s attorney or unrepresented plaintiff)

I have received your request to waive service of a summons in this action along with a copy of the complaint, two 

copies of this waiver form, and a prepaid means of returning one signed copy of the form to you.

I, or the entity I represent, agree to save the expense of serving a summons and complaint in this case.

I understand that I, or the entity I represent, will keep all defenses or objections to the lawsuit, the court’s 

jurisdiction, and the venue of the action, but that I waive any objections to the absence of a summons or of service.

I also understand that I, or the entity I represent, must file and serve an answer or a motion under Rule 12 within 

60 days from 1/5/2018, the date when this request was sent (or 90 days if it was sent outside the United States). If I fail to 

do so, a default judgment will be entered against me or the entity I represent.

Date: January 12, 2018 /s/ Richard B. North, Jr.

Duty to Avoid Unnecessary Expenses of Serving a Summons

Rule 4 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure requires certain defendants to cooperate in saving unnecessary expenses of serving a 

summons and complaint. A defendant who is located in the United States and who fails to return a signed waiver of service requested by a plaintiff 

located in the United States will be required to pay the expenses of service, unless the defendant shows good cause for the failure. 

Case 2:15-md-02641-DGC Document 9652 Filed 01/16/18 Page 1 of 2
2

“Good cause” does not include a belief that the lawsuit is groundless, or that it has been brought in an improper venue, or that the court has 

no jurisdiction over this matter or over the defendant or the defendant’s property. 

If the waiver is signed and returned, you can still make these and all other defenses and objections, but you cannot object to the absence of 

a summons or of service. 

If you waive service, then you must, within the time specified on the waiver form, serve an answer or a motion under Rule 12 on the 

plaintiff and file a copy with the court. By signing and returning the waiver form, you are allowed more time to respond than if a summons had been 

served.

NO. 14-18-00693-CR

BRODERICK RECHARD STOKES, Appellant 

V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee 

On Appeal from the 228th District Court 

Harris County, Texas 

Trial Court Cause No. 1201891 

M E M O R A N D U M O P I N I O N 

Appellant Broderick Rechard Stokes pleaded guilty to burglary of a vehicle 

with two or more previous convictions. Appellant and the State agreed appellant’s 

punishment would not exceed ten months’ confinement in state jail. On April 28, 

2009, the trial court sentenced appellant in accordance with the terms of his 

agreement with the State. Appellant filed a notice of appeal on July 25, 2018. 

We lack jurisdiction over this appeal for two reasons: the notice of appeal was

not filed timely, and this is a plea bargain case with no appealable matters and 
2

appellant has not been granted permission to appeal. 

First, a defendant’s notice of appeal must be filed within thirty days after 

sentence is imposed when the defendant has not filed a motion for new trial. See

Tex. R. App. P. 26.2(a)(1). A notice of appeal that complies with the requirements 

of Rule 26.2 is essential to vest the court of appeals with jurisdiction. Slaton v. State, 

981 S.W.2d 208, 210 (Tex. Crim. App. 1998). If an appeal is not timely perfected, a 

court of appeals does not obtain jurisdiction to address the merits of the appeal. 

Under those circumstances it can take no action other than to dismiss the appeal. Id.

Appellant’s notice of appeal was filed more than nine years after sentence was 

imposed. Therefore, the appeal was not timely perfected, and we lack jurisdiction. 

Second, in a plea bargain case—that is, a case in which a defendant’s plea was 

guilty or nolo contendere and the punishment did not exceed the punishment 

recommended by the prosecutor and agreed to by the defendant—a defendant may 

appeal only matters raised by a written, pretrial motion or with the trial court’s 

permission. Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a)(2).

Appellant’s punishment does not exceed the agreed length of confinement. 

The record does not contain any appealable pretrial rulings, and the trial court did 

not grant appellant permission to appeal.

Accordingly, we DISMISS the appeal.

Amos Jacob Arroyo, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. USCA4 Appeal: 21-7709 Doc: 10 Filed: 04/01/2022 Pg: 1 of 22 PER CURIAM: Amos Jacob Arroyo seeks to appeal the district court’s order dismissing without prejudice his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action for failure to comply with a court order

. In civil cases, parties have 30 days after the entry of the district cour t’s final judgment to note an appeal, Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(1)(A), unless the district court extends the appeal period under Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(5) or reopens the appeal period under Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(6). “[T]he timely filing of a notice of appeal in a civil case is a jurisdictional requirement.” Bowles
v. Russell , 551 U.S. 205, 214 (2007).
The district court’s order was entered on August 11 , 202 1

. Arroyo filed his notice of appeal, at the earliest, on December 2 , 202 1 , well after the appeal and exc usable neglect periods expired

. * In his notice of appeal, however, Arroyo indicated that he had not been receiving legal mail , implied that he never received the court’s dismissal order , and asked that his appeal be granted

. We therefore construe the notice of appeal as a motion to reopen the appeal period under Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(6). Accordingly, we remand this case to the
district court for the limited purpose of determining whether Arroyo is entitled to a reopening of the appeal period. The reco rd, as supplemented, will then be returned to this
court for further proceedings.
REMANDED

* For the purpose of this appeal, we assume that the date appearing on the notice of appeal is the earliest date it could have been properly delivered to prison officials for mailing to the court.
