No. 04-16-00715-CV
IN RE M.L.D.R.E., D.A.E., A.A.E., AND Y.M.E., CHILDREN,
From the County Court at Law, Val Verde County, Texas
Trial Court No. 3147-CCL
Honorable Sergio J. Gonzalez, Judge Presiding
ORDER
Appellant’s motion for extension of time to file the appellant’s brief is granted. We order
appellant to file the appellant’s brief by February 10, 2017. Counsel is advised that no further
extensions of time will be granted absent a timely motion that (1) demonstrates extraordinary
circumstances justifying further delay, (2) advises the court of the efforts counsel has expended
in preparing the brief, and (3) provides the court reasonable assurance that the brief will be
completed and filed by the requested extended deadline. The court does not generally consider a
heavy work schedule to be an extraordinary circumstance.
