                    On Appeal from the 55th District Court
                            Harris County, Texas
                      Trial Court Cause No. 2013-67214

                                   ORDER

      Appellant Duradril, L.L.C., petitioned for voluntary bankruptcy in the
United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas, under cause
number 14-36942. Because a stay is automatically affected by Section 362(a) of
the Bankruptcy Code, when this court received notice of appellant’s bankruptcy
filing, on January 6, 2015, we stayed all proceedings in the appeal. See Tex. R.
App. P. 8.2.
      On May 26, 2015, appellees filed a NOTICE OF BANKRUPTCY ORDER
TERMINATING AUTOMATIC STAY PERUSUANT TO U.S.C. §§ 362(D)(1).
Attached to the notice is a copy of the bankruptcy court’s order terminating the
automatic stay.

      Unless within 20 days of the date of this order, appellants file a motion
demonstrating good cause to continue to abate this appeal, it will be reinstated and
placed on the court’s active docket.

                                       PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Justices Christopher, Brown and Wise.
