MICHAEL KEN SCHAUMBURG AND SCHAUMBURG ARCHITECTS, P.C., Appellees

On Appeal from the 193rd Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. DC-12-13199

ORDER We GRANT the May 23, 2013 motion of Robert J. Myers, Mark C. Hill, and Austin F.

Pennington and the firm of Myers Hill to withdraw as counsel of record for appellees, Michael

Ken Schaumburg and Schaumburg Architects, P.C. We DIRECT the Clerk of this Court to

remove Robert J. Myers, Mark C. Hill, and Austin F. Pennington and the firm of Myers Hill as

counsel of record for appellees.

While appellee, Michael Ken Schaumburg may represent himself in this appeal, appellee

Schaumburg Architects, P.C. is a corporation and may only appear in this Court through an

attorney. See Kunstoplast of Am., Inc. v. Formosa Plastics Corp., 937 S.W.2d 455, 456 (Tex.

1996) (per curiam). Accordingly, we ORDER appellees to notify the Court, within THIRTY DAYS of the date of this order, of the name, State Bar number, address, and telephone number

of new counsel.

Appellees shall file their brief within SIXTY DAYS of the date of this order. If

appellees do not file a brief within the time specified, the appeal will be submitted without an

appellees’ brief. We caution appellee, Schaumburg Architects, P.C., that it may only submit a

brief through counsel. If appellee Michael Ken Schaumburg files a pro se brief, the brief will

apply to him individually and not to appellee Schaumburg Architects, P.C.

We DIRECT the Clerk of this Court to send a copy of this order to counsel for appellant

and to appellees at the following address:

817 W. Daggett Ave. Fort Worth, Texas 76104
