TO THE HONORABLE CLERK AND JUSTICES OF THE FOURTH

COURT OF APPEALS:

COMES NOW APPELLANTS, CITY OF CARRIZO SPRINGS AND

ADRIAN DELEON, INDIVIDUALLY AND AS MAYOR OF THE CITY OF

CARRIZO SPRINGS, TEXAS, by and through their undersigned counsel of

record and, in accordance with the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure , files this,

their Advisory to the Court. For cause of action, Appellants would show unto the

Court the following:

I.

On January 26, 2015, the Court granted the Parties’ Motion to Abate and

directed the Appellants to file a status report on or before February 10, 2015.

Consistent with that Order, Appellants report that the Parties retained the

Honorable Rene Diaz as mediator and conducted a full-day mediation on February

6, 2015. The Parties entered into a preliminary written agreement voluntarily

compromising all pending trial court and appellate claims by and between all

Parties of record.

Because the City of Carrizo Springs and the Carrizo Springs Housing

Authority are governmental entities, final approval of the written mediation

agreement must be obtained from the City Council and Board of Commissioners,

respectively. The attorneys of record anticipate presenting the written agreements

to the Council and Commission for formal approval within fourteen (14) days.

The attorneys of record will also request that the trial court dissolve all pending

restraining orders and injunctions as agreed.

As such, Appellants, with the agreement of Appellees, respectfully request

that the Court extend its Order of Abatement for an additional twenty-one (21)

days so that the Parties can obtain final approval of the mediated settlement

agreement. This request is submitted, not for undue delay, but so that justice may

be done.

WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, APPELLANTS, CITY OF

CARRIZO SPRINGS AND ADRIAN DELEON, INDIVIDUALLY AND AS

MAYOR OF THE CITY OF CARRIZO respectfully pray that the Court take

notice of their Advisory to the Court and grant them further relief, either at law or

in equity, to which they may be justly entitled.
