RE: Court of Appeals Number: 05-15-00214-CV

Trial Court Case Number: 429-53095-2010 Style: In the Interest of S.M.R. and A.L.R., Children

Dear Ms. Hsu:

Pursuant to the procedure set forth in Miles v. Ford Motor Co., 914 S.W.2d 135, 127 n.2 (Tex. 1995) (per curiam), the Court is referring the motion to transfer in the above referenced case to the Texas Supreme Court. A copy of the motion and our order abating the case pending disposition of the motion to transfer are attached. As stated in that order, because appellant is an employee of the Court, the Fifth District Court of Appeals does not object to the transfer of the appeal.

The Court appreciates your assistance with this matter. /
