Raouf Hanna v. Carol Fattal
245th District Court of Harris County, No. 2017-48892
ORDER
Richard Hightower, Judge
On September 23, 2024, appellant filed an opposed motion to suspend enforcement of the judgment in the trial court. Appellant states that he is prepared to make a cash payment into the registry of the trial court.
To supersede the judgment, appellant must comply with Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 24. A cash deposit in lieu of bond may be deposited with the trial court clerk. See Tex. R. App. P. 24.1(c). When the judgment is for the recovery of money, the amount of the deposit must equal the sum of the damages awarded by the judgment. See Tex. R. App. P. 24.2(a).
Deposits in lieu of bond are not to be filed with the court of appeals and thus, appellant's request for this Court to suspend enforcement is denied.
It is so ORDERED.
