Trial Court No. 2016-CI-16793
Honorable Rosie Alvarado, Judge Presiding
ORDER
On August 21, 2017, this court received Appellant's Reply Brief. Appellant's reply brief violates Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.4(i)(1)(C) in that it exceeds 7,500 words, exclusive of words contained in the caption, identity of parties and counsel, statement regarding oral argument, table of contents, index of authorities, statement of the case, statement of issues presented, statement of jurisdiction, statement of procedural history, signature, proof of service, certification, certificate of compliance, and appendix. If a document fails to conform with Rule 9.4, this Court "may strike the document or identify the error and permit the party to resubmit the document in a conforming format by a specified deadline." TEX. R. APP. P. 9.4(k).
Recognizing that her reply brief exceeds the word-limits, appellant has filed a Motion to Suspend Briefing Rules as to Word Limits. Appellant's motion is DENIED. Appellant may file an amended reply brief that conforms with Rule 9.4 on or before September 7, 2017. If appellant does not file an amended reply brief that conforms with Rule 9.4 by such date, her reply brief will be stricken and she will be prevented from filing another reply brief.
