Christopher Mango v. Jan Jarzabek

Fourth Court of Appeals
San Antonio, Texas
March 12, 2020
No. 04-20-00141-CV
Christopher MANGO,
Appellant
v.
Jan JARZABEK,
Appellee
From the County Court at Law No. 3, Bexar County, Texas
Trial Court No. 2020CV00731
Honorable David J. Rodriguez, Judge Presiding
ORDER
This is an appeal of a final judgment of a county court in an eviction suit. Appellants
have filed a document entitled “Stop Eviction Writ of Possession Notice” which we construe as a
motion requesting that we stay the judgment of eviction. This court is not, however, authorized
to stay the county court’s judgment pending this appeal under any circumstances “unless, within
10 days of the signing of the judgment, the appellant file[d] a supersedeas bond in an amount set
by the county court.” See TEX. PROP. CODE ANN. § 24.007(a); see also TEX. R. CIV. P. 510.13.
Because neither the clerk’s record nor the appellant’s motion reflects that a supersedeas bond
was filed by appellants within ten (10) days of the judgment, we must DENY appellants’ motion
to stay eviction.
