Appellant’s motions are attached to this order. The trial court shall hold a hearing within 30 days of the date of this order and make a determination concerning the appropriate type and amount of security, if any, and see that a hearing record and supplemental clerk’s record are filed containing the trial court’s order. The hearing record and supplemental clerk’s record are due in this Court within 45 days of the date of this order. This appeal may be reinstated on the active docket on the motion of any party or on the Court’s own motion. It is so ORDERED.
