the Texas Rules of Civil Procedure and the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure and of a Form
Statement of Inability to Afford Payment of Court Costs, Misc. Docket No. 16-9122 (Tex. Aug
31, 2016), http://www.txcourts.gov/media/1435934/169122.pdf
       Appellee’s motion for a free copy of the appellate record is HELD IN ABEYANCE. To
receive a free copy of the appellate record, Appellee must file a Statement of Inability to Afford
Payment of Court Costs. A blank copy of the required form is attached.
         If Appellee wishes to obtain a free copy of the appellate record, we ORDER Appellee to
file a completed form within TEN DAYS of the date of this order. If Appellee fails to timely file
the statement as ordered, her request for a free copy of the record may be denied.
