               On Appeal from the 192nd Judicial District Court
                            Dallas County, Texas
                     Trial Court Cause No. 86-03794-K

                       MEMORANDUM OPINION
         Before Chief Justice Burns, Justice Goldstein, and Justice Smith
                         Opinion by Chief Justice Burns
      We reinstate this appeal. This case was abated in 1987 due to bankruptcy. See

TEX. R. APP. P. 8.2. The Court conducted an independent review of the federal Public

Access to Court Electronic Records (PACER) system; however, nothing shows that

a bankruptcy case associated with this appeal remains pending.

      We notified the parties by letter, requesting they inform the Court of the status

of the bankruptcy and of this appeal. We cautioned that the failure to respond would

result in the appeal being dismissed for want of prosecution. See id. 42.3(b),(c). To

date, neither party has responded.
      Because we gave the parties an opportunity to show why we should not

dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution and no one responded, we dismiss this

appeal. See id. 42.3(b),(c).
