Timothy K. Elkins and Carolyn M.Elkins v. DEB Fall Creek Holdings LLC
ORDER Trial court case number: 1143988 Trial court: County Civil Court at Law No. 3 of Harris County
On December 16, 2019, appellant, Timothy K. Elkins, filed a motion requesting that this Court stay execution of a writ of possession. The County Civil Court at Law No. 3 of Harris County signed the judgment against appellant in the underlying eviction suit on November 21, 2019. The record does not indicate that a supersedeas bond was filed within 10 days of the signed judgment. Accordingly, appellant's motion for a temporary stay must be DENIED. See TEX. PROP. CODE § 24.007(a) ("A judgment of a county court in an eviction suit may not under any circumstances be stayed pending appeal unless, within 10 days of the signing of the judgment, the appellant files a supersedeas bond in an amount set by the county court.").
It is so ORDERED. Judge's signature: /s/ Gordon Goodman
