Tex. R. App. P. 19.2
Plenary Power Continues After Petition Filed
In a civil case, the court of appeals retains plenary
power to vacate or modify its judgment during the
periods prescribed in 19.1 even if a party has filed a
petition for review in the Supreme Court.
History
Notes and Comments Comment to 1997 change: This is a new rule except the provisions of former Rule 234 are incorporated in subdivision 19.4. Comment to 2002 change: Subdivision 19.1 is amended to clarify that a motion for en banc reconsideration extends the court of appeals' plenary power in the same manner as a motion for rehearing addressed to the panel of justices who rendered the judgment or under consideration. Comment to 2008 change: Subdivision 19.1 is changed, consistent with other changes in the rules, to specifically address a motion for en banc reconsideration and treat it as having the effect of a motion for rehearing.
