                 UNITED BIOLOGICS, LLC d/b/a United Allergy Services,
                                   Appellee

                  From the County Court at Law No. 2, Bexar County, Texas
                      Trial Court No. 2014CV02437 & 2014CV02451
                           Honorable Jason Wolff, Judge Presiding

                                        ORDER
        The separate but related causes underlying these appeals both stem from suits originally
filed in Bexar County Court at Law No. 2, Bexar County, Texas. The Appellant in each appeal
has moved this court to consolidate the appeals. The appellants state the appeals involve the
same Appellee and the bases of the claims and relief, the trial court, and the procedural history
are virtually identical, and the issues on appeal are identical.
       Having reviewed the clerk’s records and considered the motions to consolidate, we
conclude that the appeals should be consolidated for purposes of any further orders, submission,
opinion, judgment, and mandate. Appellant’s Motion to Consolidate Appeals is GRANTED.
        We ORDER appeals numbered 04-15-00563-CV and 04-15-00564-CV consolidated into
a single appeal numbered 04-15-00563-CV. The two previously separate appeals will proceed as
one appeal numbered 04-15-00563-CV. All aspects of the formerly separate appeals are to be
presented and argued in one Appellants’ brief, one Appellees’ brief, and one reply brief; each
brief must comply with the Rules of Appellate Procedure. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.1, 38.2, 38.3.
If oral argument is ordered, the consolidated appeal must be argued within the applicable time
limits for a single appeal. See 4TH TEX. APP. (SAN ANTONIO) LOC. R. 9.1. This court will
dispose of the consolidated appeal with one opinion, judgment, and mandate.
        We ORDER the clerk of this court to ensure that copies of all filings and correspondence
relating to appeals 04-15-00563-CV and 04-15-00564-CV are transferred into appeal number 04-
15-00563-CV. Further, we ORDER the clerk to administratively close the appeal numbered 04-
15-00564-CV.
