In The
Court of Appeals
Fifth District of Texas at Dallas
No. 05-13-00607-CV
CHAO-TSU LEE, ET AL., Appellants
V.
FANNIE MAE, Appellee
On Appeal from the County Court at Law No. 1
Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. CC-12-07466-A
ORDER
On November 6, 2013, Appellants filed a Motion for Extension of Time to File
Appellants’ Brief and a brief. By letter dated November 12, 2013, we informed Appellee that we
construed Appellants’ motion as a motion for an extension of time to file both their notice of
appeal and an amended reply brief and allowed Appellee ten days to object. By letter dated
November 22, 2013, Appellee stated that it did not object to the Court “treating Appellants’
motion as an extension of time for both the brief and the appeal.” Accordingly, on December 18,
2013, we granted Appellants’ motion for extension of time to file their notice of appeal and
deemed it timely filed on April 30, 2013. We now GRANT Appellants’ motion for extension of
time to file an amended reply brief and deem such brief timely filed on November 6, 2013.
In its letter dated November 22, 2013, however, Appellee did object to the “Appellants
continuing to file ‘motions’ and ‘briefs’ subsequent to the Court’s November 12, 2013
correspondence.” On November 13, 2013, Appellants filed a motion for extension of time to file
Appellants’ brief. In light of Appellee’s objection and the Court’s allowance for the filing of an
amended reply brief, the Court declines to allow any additional briefing absent extraordinary
circumstances and DENIES Appellants’ motion.
