KIMBERLY FISHER, Appellees

Trial Court Cause No. D-1-GN-24-000372
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Appellant Mischa Adorare appeals from the trial court’s order granting
summary judgment for appellees, Spillman Ranch Homes LP, The NRP Group
LLC, and Kimberly Fisher. 1 Adorare has filed multiple motions regarding items
she claims should be included in the appellate record. On July 9, 2026, we denied
1
This appeal was originally filed in the Third Court of Appeals but was transferred to this
Court by the Texas Supreme Court pursuant to docket equalization. See Tex. Gov’t Code
§ 73.001(a).
Adorare’s Emergency Motion for Direct Supplementation of the Appellate Record
and on July 14, we denied her motion to reconsider the denial of that motion.
Appellant’s brief was due July 15, 2026. That same day she filed a notice
informing the Court that she was unable to file an opening brief due to the claimed
incomplete record.
On July 29, the clerk of the Court notified Adorare that her brief was due on
July 15 and that if she intended to file a brief, she must file either a motion for
extension of time to file a brief or a brief accompanied by such a motion on or
before August 10, 2026. On July 31, Adorare filed a motion to abate the appeal.
She asserted that briefing on the “current materially incomplete record cannot
produce a meaningful, adequate, or accurate merits presentation” and requested
that we abate the appeal until the record is complete. She alternatively requested
that we extend the briefing deadline to allow the record to be completed before
briefing, but noted that a “date-certain extension on the current materially
incomplete record would not enable Appellant to prepare a meaningful merits brief
and would waste the resources of the parties and the Court.” We denied the
requested relief.
On August 10, Adorare filed a Renewed Notice of Constitutional Ability to
Brief on the Incomplete Appellate Record, asking that we reverse the trial court’s
judgment and remand the case for a new trial with a complete record. She also
claims that requiring briefing on the current record would violate due process. We
have already concluded that Adorare has not demonstrated that she is entitled to
inclusion of any additional items in the record. Accordingly, we deny the relief
requested in her August 10 motion.
Adorare has represented in multiple filings that she will not file a brief on
the current record. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal the appeal in accordance
2
with Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 42.3(b)-(c). Any pending motions are
dismissed as moot.

Panel consists of Chief Justice Brister and Justices Field and Farris.
