                 APPEAL FROM CAUSE NO. D-1-GN-09-001428
           250TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT OF TRAVIS COUNTY, TEXAS
                         HON. JOHN DIETZ PRESIDING


  APPELLANTS’ MOTION TO LIFT ABATEMENT AND UNOPPOSED
         FOURTH MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME
               TO FILE APPELLANTS’ BRIEF


TO THE HONORABLE THIRD COURT OF APPEALS:

      Appellants CorpSol, Inc., Corporate Solutions, Inc., Corporate Solutions

Services, Inc., and 4XE, Inc., file this Motion to Lift Abatement and Fourth Motion

for Extension of Time to File Appellants’ Brief. Appellants respectfully show:

      1.    The parties have been attempting to negotiate a settlement.

Accordingly, the Court abated this case by order dated September 24, 2015.
Appellants have requested and received two previous extensions. The Court denied

Appellants’ Unopposed Third Motion for Extension of Time as moot, instead

abating the appeal to allow negotiations to proceed.

       2.     The Court’s order of abatement required a status report be filed by

November 17, 2015.

       3.     Appellants hereby notify the Court that negotiations have failed, and

this case should be returned to the Court’s active docket. Appellants request that

the Court lift the abatement and set a briefing schedule.

       4.     Appellants request a 30-day extension of time, or until December 17,

2015, for filing their brief.

       5.     As grounds, Appellants state that the parties have undertaken

discussions standing a substantial chance of resolving this matter. Appellants

allocated their resources toward those discussions rather than completing a brief

that would not need to be filed if the discussions were successful. For that reason,

Appellants need additional time to complete the brief.

       4.     This case has not been set for submission. Therefore, no unnecessary

delay will result from the granting of this extension.

       5.     Appellee does not oppose the relief sought in this motion.




                                          2
                          CONCLUSION AND PRAYER

      For these reasons, Appellants respectfully request that the Court lift the

abatement, restore this case to its active docket, and grant this motion for extension

of time, thus making their opening brief due on December 17, 2015. Appellants

request all other appropriate relief to which they are entitled.

                                        Respectfully submitted,
