JOHN PANAKKAL JOY, Appellant v. US LLOYDS INSURANCE COMPANY AS SUBROGEE OF FRED SANCHEZ AND USAA CASUALTY INSURANCE COMPANY, Appellees
On Appeal from the County Court at Law No. 6 Collin County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 006-00954-2021
ORDER
ROBERT D. BURNS, III CHIEF JUSTICE
In response to this Court's letter questioning its jurisdiction over the appeal, appellant has filed a motion to abate the appeal to allow him to obtain a severance order thereby rendering the judgment final for appeal purposes. We GRANT the motion. We ABATE the appeal for forty-five days to allow appellant an opportunity to obtain a severance order. The appeal will be reinstated in fifty days or when a supplemental clerk's record is filed with a severance order, whichever occurs sooner. We caution appellant that should the trial court fail to sign a severance order, the appeal will be dismissed for want of jurisdiction.
We DIRECT the Clerk of the Court to send a copy of this order to The Honorable Jay Bender, Presiding Judge of County Court at Law No. 6, and all parties.
