JANATA MONTGOMERY, Appellant v. SOUTHERN METHODIST UNIVERSITY, Appellee
On Appeal from the 162nd Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. DC-19-17588
ORDER
Before the Court is appellant's October 23, 2020 Amended Response to the Mandate. Appellant asks this Court to void the mandate because it provides that appellee shall recover its costs of the appeal from appellant even though she is indigent. See TEX. R. APP. P. 43.4 (indigent party must not be required to pay costs of appeal). Although the provision that appellee recover its costs of the appeal from appellant is void, this Court no longer has plenary jurisdiction to modify the judgment. See id. 19.1. Accordingly, we DENY the motion.
