                              IN RE CAROLYN BARNES


                                   Original Proceeding



                             MEMORANDUM OPINION

       Relator Carolyn Barnes’s petition for writ of mandamus is denied. Recently

amended Rule of Civil Procedure 145 governs a party’s claim that the party is unable to

afford costs for preparation of the appellate record. TEX. R. APP. P. 20.1 cmt.; see TEX. R.

CIV. P. 145 (effective Sept. 1, 2016).

       Accordingly, Relator’s motion for emergency stay is dismissed as moot.
