THE TEXAS RANGER OIL COMPANY, Appellant v. ALAMO FLUIDS, INC., Appellee
On Appeal from the 116th Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 84-4064-F
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Myers, Partida-Kipness, and Garcia
Opinion by Justice Garcia
We reinstate this appeal. This case was abated in 1985 due to bankruptcy. See TEX. R. APP. P. 8.2. The Court conducted an independent review of the federal Public Access to Court Electronic Records (PACER) system; however, nothing on that system indicated that a bankruptcy case was still pending.
We then notified the parties by letter, requesting they inform the Court of the status of the bankruptcy and of this appeal. We cautioned that the failure to respond would result in the appeal being dismissed for want of prosecution. See id. 42.3(b),(c). The letters to appellant's attorneys were returned because the addresses were no longer current. Appellant's counsel has not withdrawn from representation and has failed to provide the Court with an up-to-date address. See TEX. R. APP. P. 6.5; 5th Tex. App. (Dallas) Loc. R. 2.
Because we gave the parties an opportunity to show why we should not dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution and no one responded, we dismiss this appeal. See id. 42.3(b),(c); Brewer v. Admiral Ins. Co., 2002 WL 31312990, at *1 (Tex. App.—Dallas Oct. 16, 2002, no writ) (per curiam) (not designated for publication).
