                        The parties are instructed to file a report sixty days from the date of this order informing this Court about the status of the bankruptcy proceedings. Any party may file a motion to reinstate upon the occurrence of an event that would allow the appeal to proceed. See Tex. R. App. P. 8.3(a). Failure to notify this Court of a lift of the automatic stay or termination of the bankruptcy case may result in dismissal of this appeal for want of prosecution. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(b).
