`Cause No. 13-23-00272-CV
`Tr.Ct.No. 2021-DCL-03184
`Novus Prime Properties, LLC v. Space Exploration Technologies Corp.
`
`Dear Counsel:
`
`The appellant’s notice of appeal and amended notice of appeal in the above
`cause were filed in this Court on June 29, 2023. The parties should file a docketing
`statement with this Court within 15 days from the date of this notice. See TEX. R. APP. P.
`5, 32. If appellant has not already done so, appellant should make a written request to
`the clerk and the court reporter and make arrangements to pay for the records within
`ten days of this notice. See id. R. 34.6(b)(1). Please remit the $205.00 filing fee within
`ten days from the date of this notice.
`
`Appeals and original proceedings in this Court are governed by the Texas Rules
`of Appellate Procedure. The parties to this cause should review the rules and ensure
`that their filings meet the requirements of the rules. The parties should also review
`information regarding the Court’s policies and procedures which can be found on the
`Court’s website at http://www.txcourts.gov/13thcoa.aspx. The Court’s website includes a
`wide variety of useful links and specific information about matters such as fees,
`motions, the alternative dispute resolution program, oral argument, and access to
`appellate records.
`
`Under the recent amendments to the appellate rules, effective January 1, 2014,
`all attorneys in civil and criminal cases are required to file all documents (except a
`document submitted under seal or subject to a motion to seal) with the Court through
`the eFileTexas.gov electronic filing system. Parties not represented by an attorney are
`strongly encouraged to e-file documents, but e-filing is not required. An e-filer is not
`required to file any paper copies of an e-filed document unless specifically requested by
`the Court. All e-filed documents must conform to Rule 9 of the Texas Rules of Appellate
`Procedure. If a party is not required to e-file a document, the original and one unbound
`copy of the document should be filed. See id. R. 9.3(a)(1). All documents, e-filed or
`submitted in paper, must be redacted in compliance with Rule 9, see id. R. 9.9, 9.10,
`and e-filed briefs must follow the Texas Supreme Court’s Redaction Guidelines.
