On Appeal from the 272nd District Court

Brazos County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. 24,484

M E M O R A N D U M   O P I N I O N

            This is an appeal from a judgment signed February 7, 1986. On September 11, 1986, this court abated the appeal because appellants, Advanced Specialties Oil Corporation, James W. Brock, Sr., and John Rodney King, petitioned for voluntary bankruptcy in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas, under cause numbers 86-07186-H2-11, 86-07347-H2-11, and 86-08056-H3-11,  See Tex. R. App. P. 8.2.  This appeal has been abated and treated as a closed case since July 2, 1987.  The court has not been advised that any party wishes to reinstate the appeal. 

            On July 8, 2010, this court notified the parties that unless any party to the appeal filed a motion demonstrating good cause to retain the appeal on or before July 23, 2010, this appeal would be dismissed for want of prosecution.  See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(b).  No response was filed. 

            Accordingly, we reinstate the appeal and order it dismissed.

                                                                        PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Chief Justice Hedges and Justices Yates and Boyce.
