                                                 ATTORNEY FOR APPELLANTS

Motion for Extension of Time/File Brief/                                                 1
TO THE HONORABLE COURT OF APPEALS:

         COMES NOW, Appellants, STEPHEN D. FOX, as Next Friend of C.F. and M.F.,

and move the Court to grant a Third Motion for Extension of Time to File Appellants’

Brief herein, and in support thereof would show the Court the following:

    1.       Attorney, STEPHEN D. FOX, had been working diligently on researching the

             law and writing a Petition for a Writ of Certiorari to the Louisiana Supreme

             Court as well as a Petition for Discretionary Review to the Texas Supreme

             Court, both of which documents have been filed with the respective courts.

             Also, STEPHEN D. FOX, has been suffering from a debilitating illness that

             has kept him from working on Appellants’ Brief herein..

    2.       Good cause exists for the granting of an Extension of Time to File Appellants’

             Brief herein. Appellants’ Attorney of Record, STEPHEN D. FOX, has been

             very ill during June and July, 2015, that has prevented him from researching

             the law and drafting Appellant’s Brief herein, as well as the work that

             STEPHEN D. FOX has been required to do in researching the law and writing

             a Petition for a Writ of Certiorari to the Louisiana Supreme Court as well as a

             Petition for Discretionary Review to the Texas Supreme Court..

    3.       This Motion of not brought for purposes of delay, but that justice might be

             done.

    4.       For the good cause as shown above, Attorney, STEPHEN D. FOX, requires at

             least an additional two (2) weeks in which to file Appellants’ Brief.

Motion for Extension of Time/File Brief/                                                  2
    WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, Appellants pray that the Court grant

Appellants’ Motion for Extension of Time to File Appellants’ Brief herein, and for such

other and further relief, both general and special, legal and equitable, to which Attorney,

STEPHEN D. FOX, may show himself to be justly entitled.

                                               Respectfully submitted,

                                               /s/ Stephen D. Fox
