 CLEAR CREEK INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT, ET AL., APPELLEES

                On Appeal from the 165th Judicial District Court of
                Harris County, Texas, Trial Court No. 2013-04925

           SECOND JOINT UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR 45-DAY
           EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE APPELLEES’ BRIEFS

TO THE HONORABLE JUSTICES OF THE COURT OF APPEALS:

      Pursuant to Rule 26.3, TEX. R. APP. P., Appellees Clear Creek Independent

School District, the City of Webster and Harris County, file this Second Joint

Unopposed Motion for 45-Day Extension to File Appellees’ Briefs, and in support

thereof would respectfully show as follows.

      1.     This is an appeal from a final judgment in Cause No. 2013-04925,

Clear Creek Independent School District, et al. v. GNM Enterprises d/b/a Super, et

al.; In the 165th Judicial District Court of Harris County, Texas.

                                          1
      2.      On August 11, 2015, the parties filed a joint Petition to Vacate

Judgment. If the Trial Court grants the Petition then this appeal will become moot

and the parties will move to dismiss this appeal.

      3.     The Petition was originally set for submission on August 25, 2015, but

the Trial Court scheduled the Petition for oral hearing on September 30, 2015.

      4.     Accordingly, because Appellees’ Briefs are due on October 5, 2015,

there are only two (2) business days between the oral hearing and the filing deadline.

      5.     For these reasons, Appellees ask the Court to grant a 45-day extension

for Appellees to file their Briefs.

                                 Respectfully submitted,
