                      Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam

      This appeal was abated by this Court on September 30, 1999, due to the

bankruptcy of one of the parties to this appeal. See 11 U.S.C. § 362; see generally TEX .

R. APP. P. 8. Since the abatement there has been no activity in this appeal. On April 16,

and, if applicable, a motion to reinstate the appeal or a motion to dismiss the appeal.

      The parties responded to the order by informing the Court that the case should be

reinstated and dismissed for want of prosecution. Accordingly, we reinstate and dismiss

the appeal for want of prosecution. See TEX . R. APP. P. 42.3(b).
