Fourth Court of Appeals San Antonio, Texas July 19, 2021
No. 04-21-00241-CV
Lucia SALDIVAR, Individually and as Representative of the Estate of Mark Anthony Saldivar, Appellant
v.
Joshua F. WHITE, Individually and d/b/a 88 Classic Records, and 88 Classic LLC, Appellees
From the 131st Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2018-CI-11437 Honorable Cathleen M. Stryker, Judge Presiding
ORDER On May 21, 2021, the trial court signed an order granting special appearances and dismissing plaintiff’s claims against defendants Joshua F. White, Individually and d/b/a 88 Classic Records, and 88 Classic LLC. Appellant’s notice of appeal was due to be filed on June 10, 2021. See TEX. R. APP. P. 26.1(b). Appellant’s notice of appeal was filed on June 14, 2021. Appellant has not filed a motion for extension of time to file her notice of appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 26.3.
A motion for extension of time is necessarily implied when an appellant, acting in good faith, files a notice of appeal beyond the time allowed by Rule 26.1 but within the fifteen-day grace period provided by Rule 26.3 for filing a motion for extension of time. See Verburgt v. Dorner, 959 S.W.2d 615, 617 (Tex. 1997) (construing the predecessor to Rule 26). However, the appellant must offer a reasonable explanation for failing to file the notice of appeal in a timely manner. See id.; TEX. R. APP. P. 26.3, 10.5(b)(1)(C).
It is therefore ORDERED that appellant file, no later than July 26, 2021, a response presenting a reasonable explanation for failing to file the notice of appeal in a timely manner. If appellant fails to respond within the time provided, the appeal will be dismissed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(c).
