TO THE HONORABLE JUSTICES OF THE COURT OF APPEALS:

         INWOOD FOREST COMMUNITY IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION,

Appellant in the above-styled and numbered cause, files this Appellant’s Third

Unopposed Motion for Extension of Time to File Brief and requests that the Court

enter an order extending the time for the filing of its Brief with the Court through, and

including, February 13, 2015, and in support thereof would respectfully show the

following:

         This is Appellant’s third request for an extension of time to file their Brief.

This motion is not sought for delay only but so that justice may be done. Appellant’s

brief is currently due on January 30, 2015.

         On January 15, 2014, Appellant made a request for the district clerk to

supplement the Clerk’s Record with some additional written orders (signed January

12, 2015) from the trial court granting certain motions to dismiss that are the subject

of this appeal.1 As of the date of this motion, however, the additional supplemental

clerk’s record has not been filed.

         Furthermore, on January 30, 2015, the Texas Supreme Court granted petition

for review in Case No. 13-0047, Allen Dacus, et al. v. Annise Parker and City of


         1
       Most significantly, one of the filings is the only written order from the trial
court granting one of the motions to dismiss that is the basis for the appeal. Thus,
any claim by the Appellees that Appellant’s interlocutory appeal was premature,
since no written order had been previously been signed, would be moot in light of
that order.

Houston, and set oral arguments for February 24, 2015. Lead counsel in this case will

help in the preparation for that argument and may be one of the oralists in that case.

As such, additional time is needed for the briefing in this case.

         In light of the foregoing, Appellant request an extension of time to file its brief.

                               CERTIFICATE OF CONFERENCE

         Today, counsel for Appellant has contacted counsel for Appellees regarding this

motion, and Appellees’ counsel have indicated that they are not opposed to this

Motion for Extension.

         WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, the Appellant respectfully prays

that the Court grant its Third Unopposed Motion for Extension of Time to File Brief

and extend the time for it to file its Brief through, and including, February 13, 2015.

                                            Respectfully submitted,
