Opinion

COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FIRST DISTRICT OF TEXAS AT HOUSTON

ORDER

Appellate case name: Xochytl Greer v. Wesley Michael Melcher Appellate case number: 01-19-00287-CV Trial court case number: 2017-41808 Trial court: 245th District Court of Harris County

Appellant, Xochytl Greer, has filed a motion for review of the trial court’s order sustaining the court reporter’s contest to appellant’s statement of inability to pay costs. See TEX. R. CIV. P. 145(g)(1). Because the trial court signed the order on May 3, 2019, appellant’s motion was due to be filed no later than May 13, 2019. See TEX. R. CIV. P. 145(g)(2). Appellant, however, filed her motion in this Court on May 14, 2019. We may extend the deadline for filing a motion challenging an order under rule 145 “by 15 days if [appellant] demonstrates good cause for the extension in writing.” TEX. R. CIV. P. 145(g)(2). Accordingly, we direct appellant to provide a written response to this order that “demonstrates good cause” to extend the deadline for filing her motion for review of the trial court’s May 3, 2019 order. Appellant’s response is due no later than 7 days from the date of this order. It is so ORDERED. Judge’s signature: /s/ Julie Countiss  Acting individually  Acting for the Court
