NO. D-1-GN-09-000273, HONORABLE ORLINDA NARANJO, JUDGE PRESIDING

D I S S E N T I N G   O P I N I O N
 
		Because I would request a response before ruling on appellees' emergency motion
for dismissal of this interlocutory appeal, I respectfully dissent.  See Tex. R. App. P. 10.3.  According
to appellees' motion, the deadlines in the underlying proceeding at issue are April 27, 2011, for a
hearing on dispositive motions, and the trial setting of May 9, 2011.  Given these dates, I would give
appellants an opportunity to respond before ruling on the merits of the motion.
