Brigetta D'Olivio A/K/A Brigetta Alix Anderson, Alix Brigetta v. Hilary Thompson Hutson ( 2022 )

Order entered November 22, 2022
In The
Court of Appeals
Fifth District of Texas at Dallas
No. 05-20-00969-CV
BRIGETTA D'OLIVIO A/K/A BRIGETTA ALIX ANDERSON, ALIX
BRIGETTA, Appellant
V.
HILARY THOMPSON HUTSON, Appellee
On Appeal from the 296th Judicial District Court
Collin County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 296-04855-2019
ORDER
On September 19, 2022, appellant Brigetta D’Olivio a/k/a Brigetta Alix
Anderson, Alix Brigetta, filed a motion for reconsideration and motion to transfer
this case to one of the Houston courts of appeals. On September 27, pursuant to
the procedure set forth in Miles v. Ford Motor Company, 914 S.W.2d 135, 137 n. 2
(Tex. 1995) (per curiam), this Court referred the portion of appellant’s motion
requesting a transfer to the Texas Supreme Court for determination. On our own
motion, we abated the case pending the supreme court’s resolution of the transfer
issue. On November 21, 2022, the Texas Supreme Court denied appellant’s
request for transfer. Accordingly, we now LIFT THE ABATEMENT and
REINSTATE the case.
This Court denied appellant’s motions for rehearing and for en banc
reconsideration on September 13, 2022. In denying appellant’s motions, we did
not modify our judgment, vacate our judgment, render a new judgment, or issue a
new opinion. Appellant’s September 19, 2022 motion for reconsideration is,
therefore, not authorized by the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure. See TEX. R.
APP. P. 49.4. A motion for reconsideration not authorized by the rules is a nullity.
Mapco, Inc. v. Forrest, 795 S.W.2d 700, 702 (Tex. 1990). Accordingly, we
DISMISS appellant’s motion for reconsideration.
