ORDER
On October 27, 2016, this court issued an order instructing appellants Edward J. Dryden and Roberto L. Ramirez, Jr. to respond with a reasonable explanation for failing to file their notice of appeal in a timely manner. The court, having considered appellants' response, finds that appellants have provided an adequate explanation for filing their notice of appeal late but within the fifteen-day grace period. See TEX. R. APP. P. 26.3; Verburgt v. Dorner, 959 S.W.2d 615, 617 (Tex. 1997). Therefore, the appeal brought by Edward J. Dryden and Roberto L. Ramirez, Jr. is retained on this court's docket.
