This is an appeal from a judgment signed August 20, 2002. On January 8, 2004, this Court ordered the cause abated after notification that appellant had petitioned for bankruptcy protection. On October 13, 2004, appellant notified this court that she had been granted a discharge under the Bankruptcy Code and that the debt giving rise to the judgment being appealed was included in the discharge. Accordingly, appellant requested we dismiss the appeal as moot. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.1. By order issued this date, the appeal is ordered reinstated for the purposes of considering appellant=s motion and disposing of the appeal. Appellant=s motion is granted.

Accordingly, the appeal is ordered dismissed.
