Mr. Christopher Pine, Clerk of the Court 15th Court of Appeals P.O. Box 12852 Austin, Texas 78711

Re: 15-25-00082; State of Texas v. Arity 875, LLC. In the Fifteenth Court of Appeals – Austin, Texas

Dear Mr. Pine,

We write with an update about the clerk’s record and some readability issues. Earlier this month, Appellant, the State of Texas, noticed there were readability issues with the original clerk’s record filed with this Court. The district clerk’s office revised its compilation and uploaded an improved version on May 14, 2025.

Notwithstanding the best efforts of the district clerk’s office, readability issues remain. 1 We also note that this readability issue appears when the district clerk’s software combines the record; the individual case filings at the district clerk are fine.

We seek to consult with the Court to obtain any suggestions the Court may have to ensure the Court has a legible and readable record available.

One additional issue remains as well. The two clerk’s records on file are not sequentially numbered, resulting in two records with identical page numbers. We would appreciate any suggestions the Court may have to resolve that situation as well.

Thank you.

Very respectfully,

/s/ Richard Berlin RICHARD BERLIN Assistant Attorney General Consumer Protection Division Office of the Attorney General
