TIMOTHY JONES AND VELMA JONES, Appellants v. FROST BANK, Appellee


On Appeal from the 113th District Court Harris County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 2014-48702

REINSTATEMENT ORDER

On May 5, 2015, this court abated this appeal because appellants, Timothy Jones and Velma Jones, petitioned for voluntary bankruptcy in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas, under cause number 15-32245 and 15-32106-H5-13, respectively. See Tex. R. App. P. 8.2. Because a stay is automatically effected by Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, when this court received notice of appellants' bankruptcy filings, on May 1, 2015, we stayed all proceedings in the appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 8.2.

On June 7, 2017, appellee filed a motion to reinstate the appeal pursuant to Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 8.3(a). Attached to the motion is a true copy of the bankruptcy court's order closing the bankruptcy cases.

The motion is granted. Accordingly, the case is ordered REINSTATED and placed on the court's active docket. Appellants' brief is due to be filed with the clerk of this court on or before July 24, 2017.
