Kenneth Davidson, Tamara Davidson, and/or All Occupants of 1922 Thompson Crossing Drive, Richmond, Texas 77466 v. North American Lumber, LLC
County Court at Law No. 3 of Fort Bend County Trial court case number: 21-CCV-069204
ORDER
Amparo Guerra Judge
Appellants, Kenneth Davidson, Tamara Davidson, and/or all occupants of 1922 Thompson Crossing Drive, Richmond, Texas 77466, timely filed a notice of appeal from the trial court's August 6, 2021 final judgment. On April 4, 2022, appellee, North American Lumber, LLC filed a "Motion to Dismiss for Lack of Jurisdiction." In its motion, appellee argues that the Court lacks jurisdiction to consider an appeal from "an Agreed Judgment when [appellants] fail[ed] to object to the Agreed Judgment."
Pursuant to a December 21, 2021 order of this Court, at the time of the filing of appellee's motion to dismiss, the time for filing of appellants' brief had not yet come due. In the December 21, 2021 order, the Court extended the deadline for the filing of appellants' brief to thirty days after the filing of the reporter's record requested by appellants on December 8, 2021. Appellants filed a letter with the Court stating that they were notified that the "audio recording for the summary judgment hearing of August 6, 2021," which was the subject of appellants' request for a reporter's record, was "not able to [be] locate[d]." Appellants further requested that the Court set a deadline for the filing of their appellants' brief.
Accordingly, appellant's brief is due to be filed within thirty days of the date of this order. Further, appellee's "Motion to Dismiss for Lack of Jurisdiction" will be carried with the case.
It is so ORDERED.
