                     Trial Court Cause No. 05-06727-L

                        MEMORANDUM OPINION
                  Before Justices Schenck, Reichek, and Carlyle
                           Opinion by Justice Reichek
      We reinstate this appeal. This case was abated in 2013 due to bankruptcy. See

TEX. R. APP. P. 8.2. The Court conducted an independent review of the federal Public

Access to Court Electronic Records (PACER) system which shows the bankruptcy

case associated with this appeal was discharged on April 24, 2019, effectively

dissolving the automatic stay.

      We notified the parties by letter, requesting they inform the Court of the status

of the bankruptcy and of this appeal. We cautioned that the failure to respond would

result in the appeal being dismissed for want of prosecution. See id. 42.3(b),(c). To

date, neither party has responded.
      Because we gave the parties an opportunity to show why we should not

dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution and no one responded, we dismiss this

appeal. See id. 42.3(b),(c).
