Bedford, TX 76021 * DELIVERED VIA E-MAIL * RE: Appellate Case Number: 11-17-00121-CV Trial Court Case Number: CV16015 Style: Farmers & Merchants Bank v. Roberta Hodges This Court received and filed Reporter's Record (6 volumes) in the above cause on July 12, 2017. As of today, the Exhibits have not been filed. Appellant’s brief is now due for filing in this Court on or before August 17, 2017. The Court notes that motions for extension of time to file brief alleging only that counsel is busy will no longer be accepted as a reason for an extension. Pursuant to TEX.R.APP.P. 38.6 and 10.5b, any motions for extension will need to be in detail, and include an explanation why your other work takes precedence over this case. A motion requesting an extension of more than 60 days to file a brief and successive motions for extensions of time to file a brief are disfavored and will rarely be granted. Respectfully yours, Sherry Williamson, Clerk cc: Mel Power, Court Reporter (DELIVERED VIA E-MAIL) District Clerk - Comanche County (DELIVERED VIA E-MAIL) Phil Robertson, Judge (DELIVERED VIA E-MAIL)
