LISA ALLEN, AS EXECUTOR OF THE ESTATE OF GRACE M. ALLEN, DECEASED, Appellant, v. TEXAS WINDSTORM INSURANCE ASSOCIATION, Appellee.
On appeal from the 36th District Court of Aransas County, Texas.
Before Chief Justice Contreras and Justices Benavides and Longoria
ORDER OF ABATEMENT
PER CURIAM.
This cause is before the Court on appellee Texas Windstorm Insurance Association's motion to abate contained within appellee's brief. In their briefs, appellant Lisa Allen, as Executor of the Estate of Grace M. Allen, Deceased, and appellee heavily reference a case out of this Court. See Pruski v. Tex. Windstorm Ins. Ass'n, 667 S.W.3d 460 (Tex. App.-Corpus Christi-Edinburg 2023, pet. filed). The Pruski case is currently pending before the Texas Supreme Court. The parties agree that the outcome of the pending petition before the Texas Supreme Court will directly impact the ruling in the cause before us now.
Accordingly, the Court, having reexamined and reconsidered the documents on file, finds that this appeal should be abated in the interest of judicial economy until such time as the Texas Supreme Court may decide the issues presented in Pruski. Accordingly, we hereby abate the appeal until further order of this Court.
