        On April 19, 2022, during oral argument in the above-referenced appeal, the Court ordered

Court ordered that Harris County’s supplemental brief was due within seven days of the oral

County’s supplemental brief.
        The Court would also like the parties to identify in their supplemental briefing any place
in the appellate record where there is an indication that (1) sidewalks were present at the subject
intersection or (2) Alvin Jones entered the crosswalk at the subject intersection from a sidewalk
and was attempting to exit the crosswalk to another sidewalk without a curb ramp.
       It is so ORDERED.
