No. 05-22-00768-CV

IN THE GUARDIANSHIP OF RICHARD W. THOMPSON, JR., AN ALLEGED INCAPACITATED PERSON

On Appeal from the Collin County Probate Collin County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. GA1-0261-2018

ORDER

After appellant provided verification that she paid $1,144 for the clerk’s

record, we ordered the clerk’s record be filed by February 6, 2023. In response,

Erin Johnson, Probate/Mental Administrator in the County Clerk’s Office, filed a

letter stating that $1,144 was the cost provided to appellant in August. Since then,

Ms. Johnson explains, appellant has requested additional documents and the

current cost of the clerk’s record is $3,158. To clarify this matter, we ORDER

appellant to provide, on or before February 27, 2023, written verification of

whether she wants the clerk’s record with the requested documents at the time the

clerk quoted the cost of $1,144 or if she wants a different record with additional documents and has paid any additional amount. We caution appellant that should

she fail to comply, we will order the clerk to file the clerk’s record as designated

when the cost was assessed at $1,144.

We DIRECT the Clerk of this Court to send a copy of this order to Stacey

Kemp, Collin County District Clerk; Ms. Johnson; and, all parties.
