The appeal is abated, treated as a closed case, and removed from this court's active docket until July 12, 2017. The appeal will be reinstated on this court's active docket at that time. The court will also consider an appropriate motion to reinstate the appeal filed by either party, or the court may reinstate the appeal on its own motion.
