       To the extent that this is an interlocutory appeal, appellant Wood’s motion to extend
       the time for filing the notice of appeal is granted because the notice of appeal was
       filed on July 5, 2018, within the 15-day grace period for interlocutory appeals ending
       on July 11, 2018, and counsel’s motion provides a reasonable explanation for the
       9-day delay. See TEX. R. APP. P. 10.5(b), 26.1(b), 26.3; Verburgt v. Dorner, 959
S.W.2d 615, 617 (Tex. 1997); Hone v. Hanafin, 104 S.W.3d 884, 886-87 (Tex. 2003).
