From the 79th Judicial District Court, Jim Wells County, Texas
Trial Court No. 06-03-44411-CV
Honorable Richard C. Terrell, Judge Presiding
ORDER
Appellees' second motion for extension of time to file appellees' brief is granted. We order appellees' brief due August 4, 2016. If the brief is not filed by the date ordered, the court may set the appeal for submission without an appellees' brief and without further notice.
Counsel is advised that no further extensions of time will be granted absent a motion that (1) demonstrates extraordinary circumstances justifying further delay, (2) advises the court of the efforts counsel has expended in preparing the brief, and (3) provides the court reasonable assurance that the brief will be completed and filed by the requested extended deadline. The court does not generally consider a heavy work schedule to be an extraordinary circumstance.
