INTERVENOR’S MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF BRIEFING DEADLINE
__________________________________________________________________

TO THE HONORABLE JUSTICES OF THE THIRD COURT OF APPEALS:

       Appellee/Intervenor, Marilyn Cameron, files this Intervenor’s Motion for

Extension of Briefing Deadline, and in support will show the Court as follows:

       a.   Appellants’ brief was due on May 5, 2015.
       b.   Appellee’s, Attorney General, brief was due on June 10, 2015.
       c.   Appellants’ reply brief was due on June 16, 2015.
       d.   Appellee/Intervenor’s brief was due on the same date as the Attorney
            General’s brief.

       Due to the fact that Appellee/Intervenor is not a licensed lawyer, she

1 Intervenor’s Motion for Extension of Briefing Deadline
believed that appellants and the appellee, Attorney General, were required to

file initial briefs here. At most, the Intervenor believed that a reply brief was

optional. And I must admit, access to the Internet can be problematic; days go by

where I’m unable to connect online.

       After communication with the clerk’s office, Intervenor now sees that

her obligation to file an initial brief had not be fulfilled. Intervenor, respectfully,

apologizes to the Court and wishes to fulfill the obligation. The clerk’s office has

given Intervenor until July 6, 2015 to respond.

       Intervenor, respectfully, requests that the Court grant more time to

submit a relevant and intelligible brief. The Court’s reminder was greatly

appreciated and Intervenor will submit a brief, along with this motion on or

before July 6, 2015. Should the brief not meet the requirements of Texas Rules of

Appellate Procedure 38.2, the Intervenor requests a 10-day extension to make

changes. The requested extension is until July 16, 2015.

       Intervenor has not requested an extension, to file a brief, before this date.

                                                   Respectfully submitted,

                                                   /s/Marilyn Cameron
