ORDER

Before the Court are appellant’s motion to abate the appeal and direct the trial court to

file findings of fact and conclusions of law and appellees’ response. Appellant timely filed both a request for findings of fact and conclusions of law and a notice of past due findings of fact and conclusions of law.

We GRANT appellant’s motion. We ORDER Judge Molberg to file his findings of fact and conclusions of law.

We ORDER Gary Fitzsimmons, Dallas County District Clerk, to file a supplemental clerk’s record, WITHIN THIRTY DAYS OF THE DATE OF THIS ORDER, containing the trial court’s findings of fact and conclusions of law.

We ABATE this appeal. The appeal will be reinstated thirty days from the date of this order or when the Court receives the requested supplemental clerk’s record, whichever occurs sooner. We DIRECT the Clerk of this Court to send a copy of this order by electronic transmission to Judge Molberg, Gary Fitzsimmons, and all counsel of record.
