                                             In The
                                 Court of Appeals

          WILMINGTON SAVINGS FUND SOCIETY, FSB, Appellee

                  On Appeal from the 14th Judicial District Court

                                            ORDER

       We are in receipt of Appellee’s November 4, 2021 Motion to Enforce

Liability on Supersedeas Bond Pursuant to TEX. R. APP. P. 43.5 (Appellee’s

Motion). Appellee’s Motion first asserts that our “Court set a supersedeas bond,”

but our Court set no bond in this case at any time. Indeed, appellee’s supersedeas

bond attached to Appellee’s Motion is from the 14 th Judicial District Court of

Dallas. However, even if this Court had set the bond, Appellee’s Motion was filed

seventy-nine days after our panel opinion—nineteen days after our Court’s plenary

Appellee’s Motion for want of jurisdiction.

    Pursuant to Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 19.1, our plenary period expires:

          (a) 60 days after judgment if no timely filed motion for rehearing or en banc
          reconsideration, or timely filed motion to extend time to file such a motion, is then
          pending; or

          (b) 30 days after the court overrules all timely filed motions for rehearing or en banc
          reconsideration, and all timely filed motions to extend time to file such a motion.

rehearing, en banc reconsideration, or timely filed motion to extend time to file such a motion after the
August 17, 2021 date.
