                                   San Antonio, Texas
                                           June 7, 2019

                                       No. 04-19-00332-CV

    Lee B. WHEELER, Trustee of the L& P Children's Trust and Nancy Wheeler Plumlee,
                                     Appellants

                                                 v.

                     SAN MIGUEL ELECTRIC COOPERATIVE, INC.,
                                    Appellees

                 From the 36th Judicial District Court, McMullen County, Texas
                               Trial Court No. M-17-0027-CV-A
                        Honorable Starr Boldrick Bauer, Judge Presiding

                                          ORDER
       The trial court clerk has filed a clerk’s record. However, the clerk’s record does not
comply with Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 34.5(a), which lists the documents that must be
included in the clerk’s record “[u]nless the parties designate the filings in the appellate record by
agreement under Rule 34.2.” TEX. R. APP. P. 34.5. Rule 34.5(a) provides that in civil cases, the
documents to be included in the clerk’s record are the following:

       (1)     all pleadings on which the trial was held;
       (2)     the court’s docket sheet,
       (3)     the court’s charge and the jury’s verdict, or the court’s findings of
               fact and conclusions of law;
       (4)     the court’s judgment or other order that is being appealed;
       (5)     any request for findings of fact and conclusions of law, any post-
               judgment motion, and the court’s order on the motion;
       (6)     the notice of appeal;
       (7)     any formal bill of exception;
       (8)     any request for a reporter’s record, including any statement of
               points or issues under Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 34.6(c);
       (9)     any request for preparation of the clerk’s record;
       (10)    a certified bill of costs including the cost of preparing the clerk’s
               record, showing credits for payments made; and
       (11)    any filing that a party designates to have included in the record.
       In this appeal, the clerk’s record does not contain all the pleadings on which trial was
held. Specifically, the clerk’s record does not include Plaintiffs’ First Amended Original Petition,
which was filed on June 6, 2017. We ORDER the trial court clerk to file a supplemental clerk’s
record on or before June 17, 2019 containing the Plaintiffs’ First Amended Original Petition.
