Lyndee Sols., Inc., No. 03-19-00142-CV, 2019 WL 2402980 (Tex. App.—Austin June 7, 2019, order) (mem. op.). Appellant's request is GRANTED. This appeal is ABATED to the trial court, and the trial court is ORDERED to conduct a hearing pursuant to TEX. R. CIV. P. 306a no later than thirty days from the date of this order and determine the date on which appellant received notice or actual knowledge of the order he seeks to appeal. The trial court clerk is ORDERED to file a supplemental clerk's record containing the trial court's order no later than ten days from the date the trial court signs the order.
