      Now here comes Appellants Cecil Adams and Maxine Adams (the

      Background Facts: On May 11, 2015 an order was signed by the First court

of Appeals (Harris County) to transfer the above captions case to the Four Court of

Appeals . Adams was unaware of motion to transfer or order until an in-person

request for a copy of the clerk record on CD was requested. Adams were informed

by the First Court of Appeals Clerk that since the order of Transfer was signed a

copy of the record could not be checked out (parties were allowed to checkout

record on disc for 7 days at no cost). Adams contacted the clerk for the Fourth

Court of Appeals and was informed a request would have to be mailed in with

payment of $111.50 for the record. Adams’ asked if record could be e-mail but

was instructed the request could not be granted. The Adams are the Appellants and

motions for the appeal and the cost of the record has been bill to Adams (record

cost $299) but was also denied copy of record from Harris county district clerk that

filed record. Adams has set up payment of $111.50 that will be overnight for

arrival on June 1st 2015. Adams has sent pre-paid return to posted for record to be

shipped to alternate address as Adams will be on vacation (traveling out of town to

see parents) but understand set vacation does not change brief will be due at time
of extension if granted by this Honorable Court. Adams will check court website

and or contact the Clerk of the Court for updates on appeal.

             II.   CONCLUSION

             This is the first and only request for an extension for the above appeal.

Adams prayerfully hopes the request for an extension be granted. Adams request

an extension of 15 days to file brief or date set by this Honorable Court .
