FROM THE 72ND DISTRICT COURT OF LUBBOCK COUNTY;
NO. 2000-512,239; HONORABLE BLAIR CHERRY, JR., JUDGE
Before QUINN, C.J., and CAMPBELL and PIRTLE, JJ.
ORDER ON MOTION TO REINSTATE AND DISMISS APPEAL
Appellant, Karen Snow, timely appealed the trial court’s order granting the motion
for summary judgment of Appellee, David Haymes, Jr., M.D., and granting the motion to
dismiss of Appellees, Richard Rosen, M.D. and SWAT Surgical Associates. After the
clerk’s record and reporter’s record were both filed, on April 24, 2003, Snow filed a Notice
of Bankruptcy and the appeal was abated on May 15, 2003, pursuant to Rule 8.2 of the
Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure.
On June 13, 2007, David Haymes, Jr., M.D., filed a Notice of Termination of
Bankruptcy indicating that Snow’s bankruptcy has been discharged. Attached to the notice
is a copy of the United States Bankruptcy Court’s Order Approving Trustee Report and
Discharging Trustee dated May 18, 2007. Haymes requests that the abatement be lifted.
The next day, Snow filed a Motion to Reinstate and Dismiss Appeal. Attached to the
motion is a copy of a letter from the Bankruptcy Trustee dated March 19, 2007, reflecting
that the bankruptcy proceeding would be dismissed. The appeal is reinstated and the
motion to dismiss is granted. Having dismissed the appeal at Snow’s request, no motion
for rehearing will be entertained and our mandate will issue forthwith.
