Additionally, the following requested documents are not listed on the trial court’s docket sheet

and are, therefore, unavailable for inclusion in a supplemental clerk’s record: (1) “Email to court

re TI on October 15, 2016;” (2) “Email to Judge re DFW Plea w/ cases attached;” and (3) “All

ex-parte emails, calls or other communications between POE counsel & Judge directly or

through staff.”

       Although we question the necessity of the requested additional numerous documents, we

GRANT the motion as follows: We ORDER appellant to file, by September 24, 2018, an

amended request with Felicia Pitre, Dallas County District Clerk, that excludes the twenty-five

above-listed documents that are already included in the clerk’s records on file in this appeal and

those not on file with the trial court. We ORDER Ms. Pitre to file, by October 1, 2018, either a

supplemental clerk’s record containing the documents as set forth in appellant’s amended request
that she is to file by September 24 or written verification no amended request was filed by

September 24.

           We ORDER appellant to file her corrected brief by October 11, 2018 and caution her

that further requests for extension will be strongly disfavored.

           We DIRECT the Clerk of this Court to send a copy of this order to Ms. Pitre and all

parties.
