ORDER

Pending before the court is appellants’ opposed motion for leave to exceed word limitations for appellants’ reply brief. In the motion, appellants explain they must respond to two separate appellees’ briefs. Appellants also seek “leave to address previously undisclosed evidence of evident partiality of the arbitrator.”

The request to exceed word limitations in appellants’ reply brief is GRANTED. The request to present new arguments in appellants’ reply brief is DENIED. See Lopez v. Montemayor, 131 S.W.3d 54, 61 (Tex. App.—San Antonio 2003, pet. denied) (“A reply brief is not intended to allow an appellant to raise new issues.”). The court will not consider any new arguments raised in the reply brief. See id.
