Court of Appeals
Fifth District of Texas at Dallas
No. 05-16-00994-CV
CHRISSIE YOUNG, Appellant
V.
DALLAS HOUSING AUTHORITY, Appellee
On Appeal from the County Court at Law No. 4
Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. CC-16-03678-D
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Osborne, Pedersen, III, and Nowell
Opinion by Justice Pedersen, III
We reinstate this appeal. This case was abated on July 5, 2017 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 which
shows the bankruptcy case associated with this appeal was dismissed on September
11, 2017, effectively dissolving the automatic stay.
We 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). To
date, neither party has responded.
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).
