APPELLANT’S UNOPPOSED MOTION TO EXTEND TIME TO FILE BRIEF

COMES NOW Anna Marie Inman, Appellant herein, and moves this Court for an extension of time to file their brief under TRAP 38.6(d), and in support thereof would show the following: 1. Appellant’s brief is now due on November 2, 2015. 2. Appellant requests a 30-day extension of the deadline for filing her brief, or until December 2, 2015. 3. Appellant seeks this extension of time for several reasons. First, one of the attorneys working on the brief, Heather Keegan, has not been able to work on her assigned issue, because she has been busy dealing with several hearings and outreach events over the past 3 weeks. Second, while much of the brief assigned to the undersigned has been completed, more time is needed to finish some legal research and drafting on the one issue being handled by the undersigned. 4. No previous extension of time to file a brief has been accorded by this Court to Appellant. Counsel for Appellee Equable Ascent Financial, LLC has informed counsel for Appellant that this motion is not opposed.

WHEREFORE, Appellants prays that this Honorable Court grant this motion and extend the time for filing Appellant’s brief until January 30, 2015, and for such other and further relief to which they may be entitled.

Respectfully submitted,

LONE STAR LEGAL AID
