HONORABLE THOMAS J. GOSSETT, JUDGE PRESIDING

PER CURIAM

Appellant's brief was originally due on April 18, 2007. The time for filing was extended twice on counsel's motion. In granting the second motion, counsel was ordered to tender his brief for filing no later than August 17, 2007. Counsel did not comply with this order. Instead, he has filed another motion for extension, asking for an additional ninety days.

The motion is granted in part. Appellant's counsel, Brad Haralson, is ordered to tender his brief for filing in these causes no later than October 5, 2007. Counsel is advised that if he fails to comply with this order, he may be ordered to show cause why he should not be held in contempt.

It is ordered September 13, 2007.
