Description

With fourteen days remaining in its six-month window to appeal a default judgment by writ of error, the State of Chiapas removed this case to federal district court. The federal district court remanded to state district court pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1447(c). Approximately eight months later, Chiapas filed its petition for writ of error. Quaestor Investments, Inc., moved to dismiss for want of jurisdiction, arguing that the petition for review was not timely filed. Thus, the question in this case is when did the appellate timetable recommence after remand? The court of appeals held that the timetable did not recommence until the party seeking remand had given notice to the other party in the case. ___ S.W.2d ___. We disagree and hold that the appellate timetable recommences upon the revesting of jurisdiction in the state court, which occurs when the federal district court executes the remand order and mails a certified copy of the remand order to the state court. We conclude in this case that the State of Chiapas failed to file its petition for writ of error within the time frame provided by the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure, and accordingly vacate the judgment of the court of appeals and dismiss the appeal.
