                                  Appellees

                 From the 293rd Judicial District Court, Dimmit County, Texas
                             Trial Court No. 12-07-11738-DCV
                          Honorable David Peeples, Judge Presiding

                                        ORDER
       On October 27, 2016, this court issued an order instructing appellants Edward J. Dryden
and Roberto L. Ramirez, Jr. to respond with a reasonable explanation for failing to file their
notice of appeal in a timely manner. The court, having considered appellants’ response, finds
that appellants have provided an adequate explanation for filing their notice of appeal late but
within the fifteen-day grace period. See TEX. R. APP. P. 26.3; Verburgt v. Dorner, 959 S.W.2d
615, 617 (Tex. 1997). Therefore, the appeal brought by Edward J. Dryden and Roberto L.
Ramirez, Jr. is retained on this court’s docket.
