Trial Court No. 2018CI22581
Honorable Antonia Arteaga, Judge Presiding
ORDER
Appellee's motion to reschedule oral arguments is granted in part.
This appeal is reset for oral argument submission on Thursday, July 23, at 9:00 a.m., before a panel consisting of Justice Rebeca C. Martinez, Justice Irene Rios, and Justice Beth Watkins. In accordance with the Texas Supreme Court's emergency orders in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the oral argument will be held through the Fourth Court of Appeals' Zoom license. Counsel are instructed not to appear at the court's physical address.
Counsel will receive a separate e-mail that will contain a link for the oral argument. Counsel are admonished as follows:
1. The link to Zoom is only for counsel presenting argument and is not to be shared with any other person. Counsel will need a computer or other electronic device with a camera, a microphone, and access to the Internet. If counsel intends to present any exhibits during oral argument, any such exhibits must be electronically filed by noon on the day before argument.
2. The argument will be live streamed to the Court's YouTube channel for the benefit of the public. The argument can be accessed using the following link:
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCiaWJQ7eW5OQIALdyLN6s3A
3. Counsel are encouraged to familiarize themselves with the Zoom platform. The Clerk of the Court will contact counsel no later than the week before argument to verify connectivity and equipment.
4. Counsel must wear court-appropriate attire and choose an appropriate background.
The time for oral argument will be limited to twenty minutes for appellants' opening argument, twenty minutes for appellee's argument, and ten minutes for appellants' rebuttal argument. If any participant's link is disconnected during argument, timing of the argument will stop until the participant is able to reconnect.
If any party no longer wishes to present argument, the party must notify this court in writing within seven days of receiving this notice.
It is so ORDERED on June 11, 2020.
