this Notice of Appeal seeking to alter the trial court's judgment or other appealable order.

       1.        The trial court, trial court case number and style of this matter are shown in the

above caption.

       2.        The judgment or order appealed from was signed on December 3, 2015.

       3.        RR Royal Ranch Company and All Other Occupants desire to appeal because (a)

Defendants’ did not receive proper or timely notice of the hearing and the trial court denied

Defendants’ Motion for Continuance to allow Defendants’ counsel adequate time to prepare for

the hearing; (b) Defendants’ Motion for Abatement was denied by the trial court even though a

separate action regarding ownership of the Property is currently pending in the Second Court of

Appeals of Texas; (c) ownership to the Property was not established by Plaintiff’s counsel as is

required by the Texas Property Code in a forcible detainer action; and (d) the award of attorney’s

fees and damages were excessive.

       4.        This appeal is being taken to the Second Court of Appeals of Texas.

       5.        This notice is being filed by RR Royal Ranch Company and All Other Occupants.
