Re: No. 15-25-00146-CV, Buc-ee‘s, Ltd. v. Head Country LLC

Dear Mr. Prine:

Appellee Head Country LLC (“Head Country“) objects to Plaintiff/ Appellant Buc-ee‘s, Ltd. (“Buc-ee‘s“) request that the Reporter‘s Record be supplemented with materials irrelevant to this appeal. On August 19, 2025, an order was entered in No. 25-BC11A-0028, Buc-ee‘s, Ltd. v. Head Country LLC, Texas Business Court, Eleventh Division, denying Buc-ee‘s Application for a Temporary Injunction. On September 8, 2025, Buc-ee‘s noticed this interlocutory appeal. Nearly a month later, on October 1, 2025, Buc-ee‘s sent a request to the court reporter that the Reporter‘s Record be supplemented with a transcript of a September 29, 2025, Status Conference between the parties. We object to Buc-ee‘s request on the grounds of irrelevance and improper use of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure.1

Under Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 34.6(d), “if anything relevant is omitted from the reporter‘s record” then a party may supplement that record. See Daniels v. Univ. of Tex. Health Sci. Ctr., 222 S.W.3d 4, 5 (Tex. App.—Tyler 2004, no pet.) (“If anything relevant is omitted from the reporter‘s record, Rule 34.6(d) permits the filing of a supplemental record containing the omitted items.“). This Court should not permit Buc-ee‘s to supplement the Reporter‘s Record because nothing “relevant” to whatever issues Buc-ee‘s plans to raise on appeal occurred—or could have occurred—at the September 29, 2025, Status Conference. This appeal, after all, is from an August 2025 order. And Buc-ee‘s noticed this appeal on September 8, 2025. Accordingly, all proceedings relevant to this appeal must have occurred by September 8, 2025. The plain language of Rule 34.6(d) contemplates supplementing the Reporter‘s Record when something “relevant” to the appeal was left out. That has not happened. Accordingly, Head Country objects to Buc-ee‘s request that the record be supplemented.

Sincerely,

LeElle Slifer

Head Country also reserves its objection to the inclusion of the transcript of the August 22, 2025, Status Conference in the Reporter‘s Record and will seek appropriate relief regarding its inclusion at the proper time.
