RIGGS & RAY, P.C., Appellant v. STATE FAIR OF TEXAS, Appellee


On Appeal from the 116th Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. DC-16-16070

ORDER

Before the Court are appellant's January 26, 2018 second unopposed motion for extension of time to file brief, appellant's January 30, 2018 unopposed motion to strike supplemental clerk's record, and appellee's January 26, 2018 letter regarding the reporter's record. The parties assert in the extension motion and letter that the reporter's record is incomplete. Specifically, the record of hearings held on September 22, 2017 and November 17, 2017 have not been filed. In the motion to strike, appellant requests a supplemental clerk's record filed January 26, 2018 be stricken because it contains items that should have been filed under seal. We ORDER as follows.

Because the deadline for filing appellant's brief is not triggered until the complete appellate record is filed, we DENY appellant's extension request as premature. On our own motion, we ORDER court reporters Cheryl Dixon and Trashuna Salaam, respectively, to file, no later than February 12, 2018, the record of the September 22nd and November 17th hearings. As this is an accelerated appeal, extension requests will be disfavored.

We GRANT the motion to strike and ORDER the supplemental clerk's record filed January 26th STRICKEN. We note a corrected supplemental clerk's record, including a sealed volume, was filed January 30, 2018. Accordingly, we ORDER appellant to file its brief within twenty days of the filing of the requested reporter's records.

We DIRECT the Clerk of the Court to send a copy of this order to Ms. Dixon, Ms. Salaam, and the parties.
