             and JAS FAMILY LIMITED PARTNERSHIP #4, LTD



                 APPELLEE’S MOTION TO DISMISS

TO THE HONORABLE COURT OF APPEALS:

      Appellee, JAS FAMILY LIMITED PARTNERSHIP #4, LTD, would show

the Court that Appellant, PAULA M. MILLER, filed an appeal of an interlocutory

order (see Tab A) which was not a final judgment in this appeal.

      Historically, on November 12, 2013, the Honorable Terri Tipton Holder

pronounced a decision recited in the Order attached as Tab A. Shortly after this

pronouncement, PAULA M. MILLER filed a Motion to Recuse Terri Tipton

Holder.   Ultimately, the Motion to Recuse Terri Tipton Holder was denied.

Shortly after denial of the Motion to Recuse Terri Tipton Holder, PAULA M.

MILLER filed a bankruptcy in the United States Bankruptcy Court, Southern

District of Texas, Houston Division. Ultimately, the bankruptcy was dismissed.

Subsequent to the bankruptcy being dismissed, on January 27, 2015, the Order in

Tab A was signed and entered. Shortly thereafter, PAULA M. MILLER gave
notice of appeal to this court in the above styled cause. Additionally, PAULA M.

MILLER failed to pay the filing fee for the appeal. With no filing fee, nor record

presented to this Honorable First Court of Appeals, the Clerk had no information to

identify that there was no final judgment in this cause and that the appeal should

not be docketed or scheduled for summary dismissal.

      Appellee, JAS FAMILY LIMITED PARTNERSHIP #4, LTD, moves this

Court to dismiss this appeal so that the Trial Court might go forward in proceeding

in the pending cause which has been “stayed” as a result of this appeal.

      Wherefore, premises considered, JAS FAMILY LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

#4, LTD respectfully prays that the Court grant its Motion to Dismiss this untimely

appeal.

                                             Respectfully submitted,
