COURT OF APPEALS

THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS

CORPUS CHRISTI - EDINBURG

CHARLES LINDER FLOYD, Appellant,

v.

WHARTON COUNTY, ET AL, Appellee.

On appeal from the 329th District Court of Wharton County, Texas.

ORDER Before Justices Rodriguez, Benavides, and Perkes Order Per Curiam

This cause is before the Court on the appellant’s motion for extension of time to

file a brief. Appellant’s brief was originally due on May 31, 2016. Appellant has filed

and received a previous extension of thirty days which made the brief due on June 30,

2016. Appellant is now asking for an indefinite extension to file the brief. The Court, having fully examined and considered appellant’s motion for extension

of time to file the brief, is of the opinion that, in the interest of justice, appellant’s motion

for extension of time to file the brief should be granted with order. The Court, GRANTS

IN PART and DENIES IN PART appellant’s motion for extension of time. This motion is

GRANTED insofar as the Court will extend appellant’s deadline to file his brief until July

15, 2016. This motion is DENIED insofar as the Court will not allow an extension

indefinitely. Further motions for extension of time will not be favorably entertained by the

Court, absent exigent circumstances.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

PER CURIAM

Delivered and filed the 24th day of June, 2016.
