Bryan Buchanan v. Matthew McEneny and Ken Black
ORDER Trial court case number: 2016-87311 Trial court: 55th District Court of Harris County
Appellant, Bryan Buchanan, has filed a notice of appeal of the trial court's final judgment signed on May 15, 2018. A reporter's record was due to be filed by July 16, 2018. On November 8, 2018, the court reporter responsible for preparing the reporter's record requested an extension of time to file the reporters' record, stating that "[t]he deposit is in the mail to [her]." We granted the request and extended the time to December 10, 2018. When no reporter's record was filed, we ordered the court reporter, or substitute court reporter, to file the reporter's record no later than January 11, 2019. No reporter's record has been filed, and the court reporter has not otherwise responded to this Court's order.
Accordingly, appellant shall pay, or make arrangements to pay, for preparation of the reporter's record, and shall provide written proof to the Clerk of this Court that he has paid, or made arrangements to pay, for the reporter's record no later than 30 days from the date of this order. Further, Gina Jackson, the official court reporter, or substitute court reporter, no later than 30 days from the date of this order, shall file a reporter's record in this appeal or notify the Clerk of this Court of the status of the arrangements for preparation of the reporter's record.
Absent a timely response, the Court may require appellant to file his brief and will consider and decide the appeal on those issues or points that do not require a reporter's record for a decision. See TEX. R. APP. P. 37.3(c).
It is so ORDERED. Judge's signature: /s Russell Lloyd
