DORSHA MOTORS OF TEXAS, LLC D/B/A DORSHA MOTORS, Appellant V. BRITTANY NICHOLS, Appellee

On Appeal from the 44th Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. DC-17-04536

MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Justices Myers, Molberg, and Carlyle Opinion by Justice Myers This is an appeal from an order granting turnover relief and appointing a receiver. The

notice of appeal was signed by Louis Waggoner with the designation of “managing member.”

Legal entities such as a corporation or a limited liability company must be represented by

a licensed attorney. See Kunstoplast of Am. v. Formosa Plastics Corp., USA, 937 S.W.2d 455,

456 (Tex. 1996); Sherman v. Boston, 486 S.W.3d 88, 95 (Tex. App.—Houston [14th Dist.] 2016,

pet. denied). Because appellant is not represented by counsel, we instructed appellant to notify

this Court, by May 15, 2019, of the name, State Bar number, address, and telephone number of

new counsel. We cautioned appellant that failure to comply may result in dismissal of the appeal

without further notice. As of today’s date, appellant has not filed a response. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(c).
