Juanita McConnell, and Rosie Lee Burlison,

Defendants.

No. CR-95-02, 03, 05

COME NOW Juanita McConnell, and Rosie Lee Burlison, Defendants in the above styled and numbered cause, by and through their attorney of record, Scott Kayla Morrison, and move to stay proceedings pending appeal on the denial of their motion to dismiss for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. To require defendants to prepare a defense in a court that may not have subject matter jurisdiction would create hardship on the defendants.

WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, the Defendants respectfully prays that the Court stays proceedings pending appeal on the order denying defendants, motion to dismiss for lack of subject matter jurisdiction.

I certify that I mailed first class postage prepaid the above and foregoing Second Amended Motion to Stay procedings Pending Appeal, to Robert L. Rabon, Rabon, Wolfe, and Rabon, on this 3rd day of February, 1997.
