Helm v. Hauser

Patricia O. Alvarez, Justice

From the 57th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas
Trial Court No. 2015-CI-16709
Honorable Martha Tanner, Judge Presiding

After his motion for rehearing was denied, Appellant timely filed a motion for en banc reconsideration. Three days later, Appellant filed an amended motion for en banc reconsideration.

Appellant's amended motion for en banc reconsideration exceeds the maximum length for a motion for rehearing: the limit is 4,500 words; the certificate of compliance states the motion contains 8,451 words. See TEX. R. APP. P. 9.4(i)(2)(D); see also id. R. 9.4(i)(1) ("Contents Included and Excluded").

We STRIKE Appellant's motion for en banc reconsideration. If Appellant wishes to file a second amended motion, we ORDER Appellant to file the motion within TEN DAYS of the date of this order. The second amended motion must fully comply with the applicable rules. See, e.g., id. R. 9.4, 9.5, 49.7.
