Appellate case name:          Preston Marshall and Rusk Capital Management, L.L.C. v.
                              MarOpCo, Inc. and E. Pierce Marshall, Jr.

Trial court case number:      2015-35950

        On September 13, 2022, this Court abated this appeal “until the trial court concludes a
new trial regarding certain litigation expenses and issues a new final judgment.” On October 13,
2022 and January 30, 2023, appellants provided status reports to this Court regarding the trial
court proceedings. In their January 30, 2023 status report, appellants stated that “[a] bench trial
was held” on the “partial new trial” and “an amended final judgment [had been] signed” by the
trial court. Appellants requested that their appeal be reinstated.
       We construe appellants’ January 30, 2023 status report as a motion to reinstate, and grant
appellants’ motion. We REINSTATE the appeal on the Court’s active docket.
        The clerk’s record is ORDERED to be filed no later than 30 days from the date of this
order. If the clerk is unable to file the record by that date, the clerk should request an extension
for the Court to consider. If appellants have not made arrangements for paying for the clerk’s
record, please advise the Court in writing.
       The reporter’s record is ORDERED to be filed no later than 30 days from the date of
this order.1 If the court reporter is unable to file the record by that date, the court reporter
should request an extension for the Court to consider.
       It is so ORDERED.
