We ORDER Felicia Pitre, Dallas County District Clerk, to file a supplemental clerk’s record

containing the trial court’s findings of fact and conclusions of law WITHIN FORTY-FIVE

DAYS of the date of this order.

       We GRANT appellants’ September 1, 2015 motion for an extension of time to file a

brief. Appellants’ brief will be due WITHIN THIRTY DAYS after the supplemental clerk’s

record containing the trial court’s findings of fact and conclusions of law is filed.
       We DIRECT the Clerk of this Court to send a copy of this order by electronic

transmission to Judge Smith, Ms. Pitre, and the parties.

       We ABATE this appeal to allow the trial court to comply with this order. We will

reinstate the appeal in forty-five days or when we receive the supplemental clerk’s record,

whichever occurs sooner.
