TO THE HONORABLE SEVENTH COURT OF APPEALS:

      Pursuant to TEX. R. APP. P. 49.1, Appellants Francis Williams

Montenegro and Lynda Williams, by and through their undersigned attorney

of record, file this First Amended Agreed Motion for Extension of Time to

File Motion for Rehearing, and for cause would show the following:

      1)     On June 3 2015, this court affirmed the judgment of the trial

court in this cause. A Motion for Rehearing of this court’s judgment, then,

was due June 18, 2015.

      2)     Appellants requested an extension to file the Motion for

Rehearing. The motion was granted. The Motion for Rehearing was due

July 20, 2015

      3)     Appellant’s counsel has been unable to finish his Motion for

Rehearing due to a lingering side effect of his medical condition which has

recently resulted in vertigo when counsel’s head tilts just a few degrees.

      4)     Only the one previous motion for extension of time to file the

motion for rehearing has been requested or granted.

      5)     This motion is made not for delay but in the interest of justice.

                          PRAYER FOR RELIEF

      For the reasons set forth above, Appellant prays that this Court extend

the deadline for filing his brief until July 27, 2015
                                      Respectfully submitted,

                                      /s/ Francis Williams Montenegro
