SECOND MOTION TO ABATE APPEAL

On Appeal from Cause 2014-29743 In the 125TH Judicial District Court Of Harris County, Texas Hon. Kyle Carter, Judge Presiding

RICARDO GUERRA Lead Counsel for Appellant State Bar No. 24074331 ERIC DAYS State Bar No. 24082907 BRENT SMITH State Bar No. 24083875 Law Offices of Rick Guerra 2211 Rayford Rd. Ste. 111 #134 Spring, TX 77386 Direct: 281-760-4295 FAX: 866-325-0341 Elizabeth Dauz TO THE HONORABLE FOURTEENTH COURT OF APPEALS:

Pursuant to TEX. R. APP. P. 10.5, the Appellant, Elizabeth Dauz, files this Second

Motion to Abate Appeal until the Trial Court makes a determination on

Appellant/Plaintiff’s Motion for Reconsideration.

The judgment appealed from was signed on September 9, 2015. The appeal was

from an interlocutory order. The Trial Court’s order did not have, permissive

interlocutory appeal language in the order. The Trial Court held a hearing on several

motions for Summary Judgment on November 16, 2015, and granted summary judgment

for all defendants.

However, Appellant contends there were claims that were not heard at the

November 16, 2015 hearing, and could not have been adjudicated or disposed of with the

Trial Court’s entry of its omnibus order. Appellant/Plaintiff’s Motion for Reconsideration

seeks to clear up any procedural complications of appellate jurisdiction to allow all

parties to properly brief the Appellate Court for a determination on the merits rather than

simply jurisdictional complications that may further delay litigation.

The Appellant believes justice will be better served by abating this appeal until

that time when all matters, issues, claims and parties that may be taken up on appeal can

be included in one appeal.

This request is not sought for delay but so that justice may be done.

All facts recited in this motion are within the personal knowledge of the counsel

signing this motion; therefore no verification is necessary under Rule of Appellate

Procedure 10.2. PRAYER FOR RELIEF

For the reasons set forth above, Appellant requests that this Court grant this

Second Motion to Abate the Appeal until all the Trial Court’s determination on these

other matters is made, and all appealable issues can be put before the Appellate Court.

Appellant all other relief to which it may be entitled.

Respectfully submitted,
