                    On appeal from Cause No. 15-DCV-221725
                        In the 268th Judicial District Court
                             Fort Bend County, Texas
                       _____________________________

TO THE HONORABLE COURT OF APPEALS:

      Appellee,    JDC/Firethorne,     Ltd.,      a   Texas   Limited   Partnership

(“JDC/Firethorne”) files this Unopposed Motion for Extension of Time to File

Brief of Appellee and would show the Court:

      1.     Appellant, W. A. “Andy” Meyers, individually and in his capacity as

Fort Bend County Commissioner, filed his Brief of Appellant on November 13,

2015, after taking one extension of time for four (4) days.
      2.    The Court’s current deadline for JDC/Firethorne’s Brief of Appellee

is December 7, 2015. JDC/Firethorne seeks an extension of four (4) days to file its

brief, until December 11, 2015.

      3.    This extension is necessitated as a result of the intervening

Thanksgiving holidays and because JDC/Firethorne’s lead counsel, Don C. Griffin,

will be traveling out of state from December 2, 2015 through December 6, 2015,

returning to the office on December 7, 2015.

      4.    This is JDC/Firethorne’s first motion for extension of time.

      5.    Appellant does not oppose this motion.

      Therefore, JDC/Firethorne requests that the deadline for filing its Brief of

Appellee be extended for four days from its current deadline of December 7, 2015

to December 11, 2015.
