                            COURT OF APPEALS

                  THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS

                     CORPUS CHRISTI - EDINBURG
____________________________________________________________

HENRY & SONS CONSTRUCTION CO., INC.,                                          Appellant,

                                            v.

PABO CAMPOS,                                        Appellee.
____________________________________________________________

          On Appeal from the County Court at Law No. 2
                   of Nueces County, Texas.
____________________________________________________________

                                       ORDER
       Before Chief Justice Valdez and Justices Garza and Longoria
                             Order Per Curiam

       Appellant, Henry & Sons Construction Co., Inc., has filed a motion to stay the trial

court proceedings during the pendency of its appeal of the trial court’s order denying its

motion to compel arbitration. See TEX. CIV. PRAC. & REM. CODE ANN. § 51.016 (West,

Westlaw through 2015 R.S.). Appellant contends that the emergency stay is necessary

to preserve the status quo and to prevent it from incurring the costs and expenses of
litigation when its right to compel arbitration is under consideration. The motion is

opposed by appellee, Pablo Campos.

       Having reviewed and fully considered appellant’s motion to stay the trial court

proceedings, we GRANT the motion and ORDER all proceedings in trial court cause

number 2015CCV-61678-2 to be STAYED pending further order of this Court.

       IT IS SO ORDERED.

                                                           PER CURIAM

Delivered and filed the
3rd day of June, 2016.
