TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN

NO. 03-10-00557-CV

Phillip Orlando Jones and Walter Lee Hall, Jr., Appellants

v.

Deutsche Bank National Trust Company as Trustee for the Registered Holders of
RESMAE Asset-Backed Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2006-1, Appellee

FROM THE COUNTY COURT AT LAW NO. 2 OF TRAVIS COUNTY
NO. C-1-CV-10-005164, HONORABLE ERIC SHEPPERD, JUDGE PRESIDING

M E M O R A N D U M   O P I N I O N

	Appellant Walter Lee Hall, Jr. filed a bankruptcy petition in the U.S. Bankruptcy
Court of the Western District of Texas on January 24, 2011.  We abated the appeal on June 2, see
Tex. R. App. P. 8.1, 8.2, 8.3, ordering Hall to inform us within ten calendar days of the resolution
of the bankruptcy proceeding or another event that would allow us to reinstate the appeal, warning
him that his failure to provide such notice would result in the appeal's dismissal for want of
prosecution.  See id. R. 42.3.   On July 15, we were informed by the appellees in another case filed
by Hall that the bankruptcy had been dismissed on the bankruptcy trustee's motion and that Hall was
barred from filing another bankruptcy petition for two years.  The bankruptcy court signed the order
of dismissal on June 28, but as of July 19, Hall had not informed this Court of the dismissal.  We
dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution on our own motion.
