On Appeal from the County Court at Law No. 4 Dallas County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. CC-11-07596-D

ORDER

Before the Court is appellants’ lawyer’s motion to withdraw as counsel. Because the

motion does not comply with the rules of appellate procedure, we DENY the motion. See TEX. R. APP. P. 6.1(c).

Also before the Court is appellants’ motion to abate the submission of this appeal pending retention of new counsel. We DENY the motion. However, on the Court’s own motion, we REMOVE this case from the submission docket of April 29, 2014. The case will be submitted at a later date as assigned by the Court.
