In The Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-20-00143-CV THEODORE SIMMONS, Appellant V. MIDLAND FUNDING, LLC, Appellee On Appeal from the County Court at Law No. 3 Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. CC-19-01681-C ORDER Before the Court is appellant’s April 7, 2020 motion to compel court reporter LaToya Young-Martinez to file the record of the September 19, 2019 bench trial. Appellant notes this Court’s March 3, 2020 order directed Ms. Young- Martinez to file the record no later than April 2, 2020, and she failed to do so. We GRANT the motion and ORDER Ms. Young-Martinez to file the record no later than April 23, 2020. Because the record was first due February 25, 2020, we caution that extension requests will be disfavored.

We DIRECT the Clerk of the Court to send a copy of this order to Ms. Young-Martinez and the parties.
