Appellant International Metal Sales, Inc., has filed a notice of bankruptcy. The filing

of a bankruptcy petition automatically stays these proceedings. See 11 U.S.C. § 362(a) (2004);

Tex. R. App. P. 8.2. Accordingly, we abate this appeal. It is the parties’ responsibility to notify the

Court as soon as possible if an event occurs that would allow reinstatement. See Tex. R. App. P. 8.3.
