                        MEMORANDUM OPINION
                  Before Justices Molberg, Goldstein, and Smith
                            Opinion by Justice Smith
      We reinstate this appeal. In February 2017, we abated this case due to Oxysure

Systems, Inc.’s 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 which shows the bankruptcy case associated with this appeal was

terminated on April 21, 2017, effectively dissolving the automatic stay.

      We notified the parties by letter dated May 7, 2021, 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, no 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); Chan v. SLK Builders, LLC., 2021 WL 2134157, at *1

(Tex. App.—Dallas May 26, 2021, no pet. h.) (mem. op.).
