In The
Court of Appeals

No. 05-16-00050-CV
MAN DO, INDIVIDUALLY AND D/B/A MR. DO COIN LAUNDRY,
Appellant
V.
TUAN DO AND CHAU NGUYEN, Appellees
On Appeal from the 14th Judicial District Court
Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. DC-13-13345
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Osborne, Pedersen, III, and Nowell
Opinion by Justice Nowell
We reinstate this appeal. In 2018, we abated this case due to Chau Nguyen’s
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 terminated on January
22, 2019, 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); Brewer v. Admiral Ins. Co., 2002 WL 31312990, at *1
(Tex. App.—Dallas Oct. 16, 2002, no writ) (per curiam) (not designated for
publication).
