                                 On Appeal From

                    District Court No. 308, Cause 2012-04063

                               Harris County, Texas

   EMERGENCY MOTION TO STAY EN BANC RECONSIDERATION




TO THE HONORABLE FIRST DISTRICT COURT OF APPEALS:

      Appellant requests this court stay consideration of his pending motion for en

banc reconsideration, pending the outcome of his 1) pending motion to remand for

lost or destroyed records, and 2) his pending motion for leave to supplement.     The

remand and supplement motions would be mooted by this court’s premature ruling

on the pending en banc motion for reconsideration. Appellant would be harmed if

he is precluded from the relief within both motions, which are both subject to

inclusion into the pending motion for en banc reconsideration by amendment or

supplementation. This motion was filed in good faith to establish due-order-of-

pleadings, and not for the sake of delay or harassment.



                                         1
                                     Conclusion

      This court should grant Appellant’s emergency request to stay consideration

of his pending motion for en banc reconsideration, so that it can first consider his

pending motion to remand for lost or destroyed records, and his pending motion

for leave to supplement, in due-order-of-pleadings.


                                        Prayer

      WHEREFORE, Appellant prays that the Court grant the relief requested

herein and such further relief, at law or in equity, to which it may be entitled.

                             Certificate of Conference

      In that Shannon’s appellate counsel is opposed to Appellant’s pending

motion to remand for lost or destroyed records, and his pending motion for leave to

supplement, it is suffice to infer that she opposes this motion to stay.
