On Appeal from the 134th Judicial District Court

ORDER
In an order dated October 6, 2015, we granted appellants’ fifth motion for an extension of
time to provide this Court with the name, State Bar number, address, and telephone number of
new counsel. Appellants did not provide the required attorney information by November 5,
2015. Rather, on November 2, 2015, they filed their sixth motion for an extension of time to file
both the required attorney information and a brief. In their motion, appellants state they “just got
the transcripts from the Court” and they are “in the process of reviewing all the transcripts with
couple attorneys [sic] and need the extra time to prepare the required brief.” The reporter’s
record was filed on September 3, 2015 and a postcard notice was sent to appellants on that date
informing them of the filing.
We GRANT appellants’ motion TO THE EXTENT we ORDER appellants to provide
this Court, by DECEMBER 2, 2015, (1) the name, State Bar number, address, and telephone
number of new counsel and (2) updated mailing addresses, telephone numbers, and any email
addresses for appellants John C. Golfis and Julie Nguyen. See TEX. R. APP. P. 9.1(b) (documents
filed by unrepresented party must include party’s mailing address, telephone number, and any
email addresses). If the Court does not receive the required attorney information by
DECEMBER 2, 2015, we will dismiss appellants Seikilos Holdings, LLC and Seikilos FX
Studios, LLC as parties to this appeal without further notice. See TEX. R. CIV. P. 7; Kunstoplast
of Am., Inc. v. Formosa Plastics Corp., 937 S.W.2d 455, 456 (Tex. 1996) (per curiam) (corporate
appellants may only appear through counsel).
We further ORDER the brief of appellants John C. Golfis and Julie Nguyen and the brief
of appellants Seikilos Holdings, LLC and Seikilos FX Studios, LLC, assuming they timely
obtained counsel and provided this Court with the attorney information, be filed no later than
DECEMBER 17, 2015. No further extensions will be granted and we caution appellants that if
a brief is not filed by DECEMBER 17, 2015, the appeal will be dismissed in its entirety for
want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a)(1).
