ORDER
PER CURIAM
On Thursday, November 7, 2024, relators Christopher Landry and Babette Landry, filed a motion, asking this court for leave to file under seal, "a non-redacted copy of the Redacted Mandamus Record originally filed in this proceeding on November 5, 2024."
Relators has not provided this court with a permanent sealing order from the trial court that complies with the requirements of Rule 76a of the Texas Rules of Civil Procedure that seals "a non-redacted copy of the Redacted Mandamus Record originally filed in this proceeding on November 5, 2024." Among other things, Rule 76a requires the sealing order to state, "the specific reasons for finding and concluding whether the showing required by paragraph 1, has been made; the specific portions of court records which are to be sealed; and the time period for which the sealed portions of the court records are to be sealed." Tex.R.Civ.P. 76a(6).
Relators have until December 3, 2024 to supplement the mandamus record with a copy of a permanent sealing order pertaining to "a non-redacted copy of the Redacted Mandamus Record originally filed in this proceeding on November 5, 2024" that complies with Rule 76a. Failure to do so will result in the denial of relators' motion for leave to file these documents under seal, unless, before that date, relators present briefing, with citations to authority, establishing a valid legal basis on which this court may grant leave to file these documents under seal without an order showing the documents been permanently sealed in accordance with Rule 76a.
