EMIL CERULLO, Appellant v. NATHAN JOHNSON, Appellee
On Appeal from the 193rd Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause Nos. DC-21-02720 and DC-24-06488
ORDER
ROBERT D. BURNS, III CHIEF JUSTICE
On November 15, 2022, the trial court signed an interlocutory order dismissing appellant's claims against appellee, one of several defendants. On April 29, 2024, the trial court signed an order severing appellant's claims against appellee into a separate suit. Appellant filed a notice of appeal of the November 15 order under the original trial court cause number on May 29, 2024, and it was docketed as appellate cause number 05-24-00660-CV. Appellant filed another notice of appeal of the same order under the new severed cause number on May 31, 2024, and it was docketed as appellate cause number 05-24-00676-CV. Because these two appeals address the same order, we ORDER that appellate cause number 05-24-00660-CV be CONSOLIDATED into appellate cause number 05-24-00676-CV. Henceforth, all documents shall be filed in appellate cause number 05-24-00676-CV. The 05-24-00660-CV appeal is now a closed case.
We DIRECT the Clerk of this Court to transfer the clerk's record filed in appellate cause number 05-24-00660-CV into this appeal.
