Richard L. Fleming III v. NASA Federal Credit Union ( 2022 )

FILE COPY Fourth Court of Appeals San Antonio, Texas February 11, 2022 No. 04-21-00555-CV Richard L. FLEMING III, Appellant v. NASA FEDERAL CREDIT UNION, Appellee From the County Court, Guadalupe County, Texas Trial Court No. 2020CV0167 Honorable Bill Squires, Judge Presiding ORDER Sitting: Patricia O. Alvarez, Justice Luz Elena D. Chapa, Justice Irene Rios, Justice This is an accelerated appeal of the trial court’s December 15, 2021 order granting Appellee’s application for turnover and appointment of a receiver. On February 11, 2022, Appellant Richard L. Fleming III, who is representing himself, filed a “Relator’s Emergency Motion to Stay Enforcement of Trial Court’s Order Pending Decision of Interlocutory Appeal.” Appellant’s motion asks this court to stay the enforcement of the trial court’s order until thirty days after the disposition of his interlocutory appeal. Appellant’s motion refers to himself as relator, and he cites appellate rules applicable to original proceedings, e.g., TEX. R. APP. P. 52.10 (Temporary Relief), but this is a direct appeal, and the appellate rules pertaining to original proceedings do not apply. Nevertheless, construing Appellant’s motion liberally, we might consider it an attempt to suspend enforcement of the judgment pending appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 24.1. Even applying that construction, Appellant has not shown how he is entitled to the requested relief. Appellant’s motion for emergency relief is DENIED.
