CRYSTAL HENDREN, Appellant, v. GABRIEL LAZAR,
Appeal from the County Court at Law No. 5 of El Paso County, Texas (TC# 2020DCV3449)
Before Rodriguez, C.J., Palafox and Alley, JJ.
ORDER
JEFF ALLEY, JUSTICE
The Court has received a request for emergency relief from Appellant in this interlocutory appeal.
This Court may make any temporary orders necessary to preserve the parties' rights until disposition of the appeal. Tex.R.App.P. 29.3. However, the appellate court must not suspend the trial court's order if the appellant's rights would be adequately protected by supersedeas or another order made under Rule 24. See id.
We note that Appellant's motion to suspend the order subject to interlocutory appeal under Tex.R.App.P. 29.2 remains pending with the trial court. Rule 29.2 allows the trial court to supersede an interlocutory order in accordance with Rule 24, which in turn sets the standards for determining amounts paid to supersede different types of judgments.
Because there is a supersedeas request pending with the trial court, and because Appellant has not explained why this Court should intervene before the supersedeas request has been disposed of in the trial court, we will deny Appellant's request for emergency relief without prejudice to refiling a future emergency relief request with this Court.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
