Honorable Karen H. Pozza, Judge Presiding
ORDER
One of the issues presented in this appeal is the same issue pending in petitions for review filed in Williamsburg Care Co. L.P. v. Acosta, 406 S.W.3d 711 (Tex. App.—San Antonio 2013, pet. filed), Fredericksburg Care Co. L.P. v. Lira, 407 S.W.3d 810 (Tex. App.—San Antonio 2013, pet. filed), and Fredericksburg Care Co. L.P. v. Perez, 406 S.W.3d 313 (Tex. App.—San Antonio 2013, pet. filed). This court has recently abated several other pending appeals that raised the same issue.
In light of the pending higher court review of the precedent previously established by this court, appellant is hereby ORDERED to either file, no later than March 17, 2014, either a motion to abate this appeal pending the Texas Supreme Court's resolution of the issue or a written response explaining why abatement should not be ordered. If appellant desires to file a motion to abate, appellant should first confer with appellee so as to indicate in the motion whether the abatement request is a joint request or an opposed request.
