On Appeal from Cause No. D-1-GN-09-001436 In the 345th Judicial District Court of Travis County, Texas The Honorable Steven Yelenosky Presiding

Appellant’s Unopposed First Motion for Extension of Time to File Reply Brief

TO THE HONORABLE COURT OF APPEALS:

Appellant’s reply brief currently is due January 7, 2016. Pursuant to Texas

Rule of Appellate Procedure 38.6(d), appellant respectfully requests a 15-day

extension of time until January 22, 2016 to file his reply brief. This extension is

requested for the following reasons.

In addition to the year-end holidays, the undersigned has had primary

responsibility for the following additional commitments during December 2015:

 preparing the response brief on the merits (filed December 16, 2015) on behalf of the plaintiff-respondent Latosha A. Lewis in an insurance matter: National Lloyds Insurance Co. v. Latosha A. Lewis, No. 15-0261 (Supreme Court of Texas);

 Preparing the response (filed December 18, 2015) to a second motion to dismiss on behalf of the plaintiff in a federal antitrust matter: Viva Cinemas Theaters and Entertainment LLC d/b/a Viva Cinema v. America Multi- Cinema, Inc., No. 4:15-cv-01015 (S.D. Tex.);

 preparing the response brief (currently due January 4, 2016) on behalf of plaintiff-appellee Janice Ishee in the appeal of a state court breach of fiduciary duty case: Ishee v. Ishee, No. 9-15-00197-CV (9th District Court of Appeals, Beaumont, Texas);

Although the undersigned has not given these commitments priority over the current

appeal, the undersigned could not complete appellant’s reply brief in this matter by

January 7, 2016 given the deadlines in these other matters.

The undersigned has confirmed that appellees are unopposed to this motion.

No prior extensions have been previously requested or granted for appellant’s

reply brief.

Prayer

Appellant respectfully request that the Court grant him a 15-day extension of

time to file his reply brief.

Respectfully submitted,
