TO THE HONORABLE SEVENTH COURT OF APPEALS:
Pursuant to TEX. R. APP. P. 49.1, Appellants Francis Williams
Montenegro and Lynda Williams, by and through their undersigned attorney
of record, file this Final Motion for Extension of Time to File Motion for
Rehearing, and for cause would show the following:
1) On June 3 2015, this court affirmed the judgment of the trial
court in this cause. A Motion for Rehearing of this court’s judgment, then,
was due June 18, 2015
2) Because of the closing and moving of Appellants’ law office, it
was very difficult for Appellant Francis Williams Montenegro, representing
himself pro se and also Appellant Lynda Williams, to adequately research
and prepare the issues for his motion for rehearing by the original deadline
of June 18, 2015. The stress of the move also aggravated counsel’s medical
condition for which he was hospitalized three times in the last four months.
Appellant also requests his motion be granted pursuant to TRAP 49.8.
3) No previous motion for extension of time to file the motion for
rehearing has been requested or granted.
4) This motion is made not for delay but in the interest of justice.
PRAYER FOR RELIEF
For the reasons set forth above, Appellant prays that this Court extend
the deadline for filing his brief until July 20, 2015
Respectfully submitted,
/s/ Francis Williams Montenegro
