1 TO THE HONORABLE JUDGE OF SAID COURT:

Appellant, CITY OF LAREDO, TEXAS (hereinafter “City”), files this its

First Motion for Extension of Time to File Brief and shows the Court as follows:

The Appellant City filed this appeal on November 20, 2015 due to the judge

in the 111th District Court of Webb County denying its Plea to the Jurisdiction. The

court has listed the brief due on December 15, 2015. Due to the coming holidays

putting several business days on hold, Appellant requests a 30 day extension of the

brief deadline making the due date January 15, 2016. I have consulted with the

attorneys for the Appellees and they are unopposed to the relief sought in this motion

to extend deadline.

Appellant City prays this court grant this first motion for extension and extend

the briefing deadline to January 14, 2016. The City further requests what other relief

it may be entitled to regarding this motion.
