Esther Atigogo v. Towns of Chapel Hill ( 2022 )

Order entered February 18, 2022
In The
Court of Appeals
Fifth District of Texas at Dallas
No. 05-21-00818-CV
ESTHER ATIGOGO, Appellant
V.
TOWNS OF CHAPEL HILL, Appellee
On Appeal from the County Court at Law No. 7
Collin County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 007-03182-2021
ORDER
Before the Court is appellant’s February 17, 2022 third motion requesting a
thirty-day extension of time to file her brief on the merits. In this Court’s January
19, 2022 order granting appellant’s second extension motion, we cautioned her that
further requests would be disfavored. In her current motion, appellant explains
that she is “STILL awaiting additional documents from the Rent Relief financial
Department”. Because the appellate record is limited to documents that were
before the trial court, see TEX. R. APP. P. 34.5(a)(1), and it does not appear the
documents she is waiting on were before the trial court, we DENY the motion.
On the Court’s own motion, we extend the deadline for appellant’s brief to
March 7, 2022. We caution appellant that no further extension will be granted and
that failure to file a brief on or before March 7 may result in dismissal of the appeal
without further notice. See id. 38.8(a)(1).
