Trial Court Cause No. 2000-23421

MEMORANDUM

OPINION

We dismiss this appeal for want of

prosecution. On January 10, 2002, we

abated this case because a party to the appeal, who was a defendant in the

trial court, filed a suggestion of bankruptcy.

On May 27, 2010, we advised the parties that the Court had learned from the

bankruptcy court’s information service that the case was ordered closed on October

3, 2006 and that, unless a party to the appeal filed a motion to retain by June

16, 2010, the appeal would be reinstated and dismissed for want of

prosecution. A motion to retain has not

been filed.

Accordingly, we reinstate the appeal

on our active docket, and we dismiss

the appeal for want of prosecution. See Tex.
