          AMENDED REQUEST TO POSTPONE ALL APPEAL DEADLINES

TO THE HONORABLE JUSTICES OF THE COURT OF APPEALS:
       NOW COMES EDSEL AMOS DIXON, Appellant herein, and files this Request to
postpone all appeal deadlines and would show the Court as follows:

      1. On May 8th, 2015 Appellant received the attached Exhibit "A" from the Rains County
         District Clerk in regards to Cause No. 9544. The Notice OfJury Docket Setting sets
         the above referenced case on the Court's jury trial docket for January 19th 2016 at
         9:00am.

     2. The setting of the above referenced case for Jury trial is a clear indication that the final
        judgment signed on January 23, 2015 was in fact not final. All issues and claims have
         not been decided, therefore said judgment signed on January 23, 2015 was not a final
        judgment or order, therefore making this appeal a prematurely filed appeal.
       Appellant would respectfully request pursuant to Tex. R. App. P. 27.1.(a) and 27.2.
       that this court accept this appeal as being prematurely filed and that all deadlines for
       this appeal be postponed and restarted, holding in reserve all fees currently paid,
       pending a Amended Notice of Appeal being filed pursuant to the Texas Rules of
       Appellate Procedure after aFINAL judgment ofall issues has been signed.

   4. This Request is not made for delay, but rather so that Appellant may have the
      opportunity to appeal all FINAL orders orjudgments decided in this cause number if
      necessary.

Wherefore premises considered, Appellant requests that this Court grant the requested relief
above, restarting this appeal, pending aAmended Notice ofAppeal being filed after a final
judgment of all issues has been reached.

                                   Respectfully Submitted,

                                      Edsel Amos Dixon
