COURT OF APPEALS

THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS

CORPUS CHRISTI - EDINBURG ____________________________________________________________

GARLOCK SEALING TECHNOLOGIES LLC AND UNION CARBIDE CORPORATION, Appellants,

v.

OSCAR TORRES AND DORA TORRES, Appellees. ____________________________________________________________

On appeal from the 107th District Court of Cameron County, Texas. ____________________________________________________________

ORDER Before Justices Contreras, Longoria, and Hinojosa Order Per Curiam

This appeal was abated by this Court on June 17, 2010, due to the bankruptcy of

one of the parties to this appeal. See 11 U.S.C. § 362; see generally TEX. R. APP. P. 8. Since the abatement, the reporter’s record and the clerk’s record have been filed. This

Court denied a motion to sever and reinstate the appeal on August 17, 2012.

In June and July 2017, the parties advised this Court that the bankruptcy stay was

still in effect and that the case should remain abated. Since that time, there has been no

activity in this appeal. The Court hereby orders the parties to file, within fourteen days

of the date of this order, an advisory regarding the status of the appeal and, if applicable,

a motion to reinstate the appeal or a motion to dismiss the appeal.

Failure to respond to this order will result in reinstatement and dismissal of the

appeal for want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(b),(c).

It is so ORDERED.

PER CURIAM

Delivered and filed the 18th day of June, 2018.
