V.

ANNAPURNA MALLEABLES PRIVATE LIMITED,

VINDHYA VASINI OVERSEAS PRIVATE LIMITED, and

SHREE LALITA GREENLAND PRIVATE LIMITED, Appellees

On Appeal from the 133rd District Court

Harris County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. 2006-17157

M E M O R A N D U M   O P I N I O N

            This is an appeal from a judgment signed October 27, 2008.  On December 3, 2009, this court abated this appeal because appellant, SAIFUL “BOB” KARIM, petitioned for voluntary bankruptcy in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas, under cause number 09-39106.  See Tex. R. App. P. 8.2. 

Through the Public Access to Court Electronic Records (PACER) system, the court has learned that the debtor was dismissed on June 7, 2010, and the case was terminated on July 19, 2010.  The parties failed to advise this court of the bankruptcy court action.

            On November 4, 2010, this court issued an order stating that unless any party to the appeal filed a motion demonstrating good cause to retain the appeal within twenty days of the date of the order, this appeal would be dismissed for want of prosecution.  See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(b).  No response was filed. 

            Accordingly, we reinstate the appeal and order it dismissed.

                                                                        PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Chief Justice Hedges and Justices Yates and Jamison.
