Secretary of State George Bayoud’s 

Motion for Expedited Briefing Schedule 

TO THE HONORABLE COURT OF APPEALS: 

NOW COMES Defendant-Appellant George S. Bayoud, Jr. ("Bayoud"), 

Secretary of the State of Texas, and moves this Court to establish 

an expedited briefing schedule in the above-referenced cause, and 

in support thereof would respectfully show as follows: 

1. Defendant-Intervenor-Appellant Dallas County District 

Judge F. Harold Entz ("Judge Entz") filed his Motion For Establish- 

ment of Expedited Briefing Schedule with this Court on or about 

January 18, 1990. 

2+ Defendant-Appellant Bayoud believes the suggested 

briefing dates in Judge Entz’ Motion to be fair and reasonable in 

light of the exceptional importance of this appeal and the 

extraordinary efforts which will have to be expended by the Texas 

Legislature during its special session beginning February 27, 1990. 

 



  

3. Accordingly, Defendant Bayoud hereby respectfully 

requests the Court to order the briefing schedule suggested in 

Judge Entz’ Motion or such other fair and reasonable briefing 

schedule as appears to the Court proper in the premises, but in any 

event, as near to the suggested briefing schedule as practicable. 

WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, Defendant-Appellant George S. 

Bayoud, Jr., Secretary of the State of Texas, moves this Court to 

grant this Motion and establish an expedited briefing schedule as 

outlined in Defendant-Intervenor-Appellant Dallas County District 

Judge F. Harold Entz’ Motion For Establishment of Expedited 

Briefing Schedule or such other expedited briefing schedule as 

appears practicable and fair to all concerned, but as near to the 

schedule proposed by Judge Entz as possible. 

Respectfully submitted,
