 UNOPPOSED SECOND MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE
                       APPELLANT’S BRIEF
__________________________________________________________________

TO THE HONORABLE THIRD DISTRICT COURT OF APPEALS:

      Appellant the City of Luling files this Unopposed Second Motion for Extension of

Time to File Appellant’s Brief.

      As reported in the First Motion for Extension of Time, the parties in this matter

have engaged in settlement discussions. Those discussions have been productive and are

ongoing. Appellant believes that time for additional discussions will prove useful and

MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME
may resolve the dispute at issue here. Appellant, therefore, seeks an extension of time to

continue and hopefully finalize such settlement discussions. A thirty-day extension of

time should provide enough time to determine whether a settlement may be possible.

       This is Appellants’ second request for an extension of time for this filing.

Appellees are not opposed to the request.

                                            PRAYER

       For these reasons, Appellant, the City of Luling, prays that this Court grant a

thirty-day extension of time to file its Appellants’ Brief to and including December 14,

2016. Appellant also asks for any other relief to which it may be entitled.

Date: November 8, 2016

                                             Respectfully submitted,
