                                          v.

STEPHANIE DELEON,                                   Appellee.
____________________________________________________________

          On appeal from the County Court at Law No. 1
                    of Travis County, Texas.
____________________________________________________________

                         ORDER OF ABATEMENT

        Before Justices Benavides, Perkes, and Longoria
                       Order Per Curiam
      On October 9, 2013, appellant filed a notice of bankruptcy in this appeal.

According to the notice, appellant filed a bankruptcy petition on September 10, 2013, in

the United States Bankruptcy Court, Western District.
      Upon the filing of a bankruptcy petition, an automatic stay becomes effective which

prohibits the commencement or continuation of any judicial action or proceeding against

the debtor and any property within the debtor's bankruptcy estate. See 11 U.S.C.A. §

362(a). Pursuant to Rule 8.2 of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure, the appeal is

suspended. See TEX. R. APP. P. 8.2.

      Accordingly, this appeal is ABATED until further order of this Court.          Any

documents filed subsequent to the bankruptcy petition will remain pending until the

appeal is reinstated. The parties are directed to take such action as is appropriate to

advise the Court of any change in the status of the bankruptcy proceeding which would

affect the status of this appeal, including but not limited to, the filing of a motion to

reinstate pursuant to Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 8.3. See id. 8.3.



                                               PER CURIAM


Delivered and filed the
8th day of November, 2013.
