Opinion
Dismiss and Opinion Filed June 7, 2021
In The Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-17-00976-CV
JOSEPH ABUZAID, Appellant V. MODJARRAD & ASSOCIATES, P.C., D/B/A MAS LAW FIRM, Appellee
On Appeal from the 95th District Court Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. DC-16-06551
MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Justices Myers, Partida-Kipness, and Garcia Opinion by Justice Myers We reinstate this appeal. In 2018, we abated this case due to Joseph Abuzaid’s
bankruptcy. See TEX. R. APP. P. 8.2. The Court conducted an independent review of
the federal Public Access to Court Electronic Records (PACER) system which
shows the bankruptcy case associated with this appeal was terminated on November
30, 2020, effectively dissolving the automatic stay.
We notified the parties by letter, requesting they inform the Court of the status
of the bankruptcy and of this appeal. We cautioned that the failure to respond would
result in the appeal being dismissed for want of prosecution. See id. 42.3(b),(c). To
date, neither party has responded. Because we gave the parties an opportunity to show why we should not
dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution and no one responded, we dismiss this
appeal. See id. 42.3(b),(c); Brewer v. Admiral Ins. Co., 2002 WL 31312990, at *1
(Tex. App.—Dallas Oct. 16, 2002, no writ) (per curiam) (not designated for
publication).
