The opinion
CHAPA, Chief Justice,
concurring.
I concur with the majority.
While I sympathize with the equitable concerns of the dissent, unlike the Texas Supreme Court, we have no authority to change the rules and thus accept a late filed statement of facts in the absence of a timely filed motion for extension of time. Tex.Gov’t *429 Code Ann. §§ 22.003(a)-(b) (Vernon 1988); Tex.R.App.P. 54(c); B.D. Click Co. v. Safari Drilling Corp., 638 S.W.2d 860, 862 (Tex.1982).
