IN THE MATTER OF THE GUARDIANSHIP OF CARLOS BENAVIDES, JR., AN INCAPACITATED PERSON,
From the County Court At Law No 1, Webb County, Texas Trial Court No. 2011PB6000081-L2-B Honorable Hugo Martinez, Judge Presiding
Sitting: Rebeca C. Martinez, Chief Justice Irene Rios, Justice Lori I. Valenzuela, Justice
ORDER
PER CURIAM
This is an appeal from the trial court's September 16, 2020 order entitled, "Order on Guardian's Petition to Recover Guardianship Property." On December 3, 2021, appellant filed a motion asking this court to abate this appeal pending a decision in Appellate Cause No. 04-20-00599-CV, which is an appeal from the parties' final decree of divorce. Appellant argues that the instant appeal may depend in part on the outcome of the divorce appeal. Appellee filed a response opposing the motion to abate.
After considering the motion, the response, and the briefs presented in both appeals, we are of the opinion that the motion to abate this appeal should be granted. Appellant's motion to abate this appeal is GRANTED, the court's October 12, 2020 submission date is WITHDRAWN, and this appeal is ABATED pending further order of the court.
It is so ORDERED.
