             On appeal from the 410th District Court
                 of Montgomery County, Texas.

                           ORDER
 Before Chief Justice Contreras and Justices Longoria and Perkes
                        Order Per Curiam
        Appellants Edward L. Kennedy, Diversified Site-Work, Inc., and Water Oak

Development Group, LLC filed an appeal in appellate cause number 13-17-00394-CV

from a judgment entered by the 410th District Court of Montgomery County, Texas. 1 On

September 11, 2017, we abated the cause. 2 However, Diversified Site-Work, Inc. and

Water Oak Development Group, LLC have filed a motion requesting to dismiss their

appeal of the trial court’s judgment. This appeal is hereby REINSTATED.

        The appeal with respect to appellants Diversified Site-Work, Inc. and Water Oak

Development Group, LLC is hereby SEVERED from cause number 13-17-00394-CV and

placed into appellate cause number 13-19-00229-CV.                    The appeal with respect to

appellant Edward L. Kennedy remains docketed under the original cause number 13-17-

00394-CV and will proceed in due course.

        IT IS SO ORDERED.

                                                                PER CURIAM

Delivered and filed the
30th day of May, 2019.

        1 This case is before this Court on transfer from the Ninth Court of Appeals in Beaumont pursuant

to a docket-equalization order issued by the Supreme Court of Texas. See TEX. GOV’T CODE ANN. § 73.001.
        2 We abated this cause because Diversified Site-Work, Inc. and Water Oak Development Group,
LLC filed a petition for bankruptcy. However, the record shows that Edward L. Kennedy is not a party to
that bankruptcy proceeding, and there is nothing in the record showing that he has filed for bankruptcy.

                                                   2
