        RE:       Court of Appeals Number:      04-15-00279-CV
                  Style:                        Abdul H. Nubaili V. County of Guadalupe and
                                                Randall R. Smidt

        Dear Counsel:

                  After reviewing the parlies' addendums to the Civil Docketing Statement in the above-
        numbered and styled appeal, the court has determined that this dispute is appropriate for referral
        to an Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) procedure. See TEX. Civ. PraC. & REM. Code ANN.
        §   154.021   (Vernon 2(105). The court intends to order the parlies to mediate after the court
        determines that it has jurisdiction to consider the appeal upon our receipt of the clerk's record.

                  The court encourages the parties to proceed to mediation prior to being ordered to do so.
        If the parties agree to mediate, the parties should notify Margaret Adams, the court's legal
        assistant in charge of ADR. The court will entertain a request to extend the appellate deadline for
        filing the reporter's record to enable the parties to concentrate on the scheduling and completion
        of the mediation process. Any communications regarding mediation should be directed to
        Margaret Adams, (210) 335-3854.

                  On behalf of the entire Court. I thank you for your cooperation in this matter.

                                                                 Very truly yours.
