From the County Court at Law No. 3 of Harris County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 919405

APPELLANT’S MOTION FOR AN EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE REPLY BRIEF

TO THE HONORABLE JUSTICES OF THE COURT:

Comes now Appellant, Deana Pollard Sacks, who respectfully moves for an

extension of time in which to file her reply brief and in support would respectfully show

as follows:

A. Introduction

1. Appellant is Deana Pollard Sacks.

2. Appellees are Thomas F. Hall and Thomas F. Hall, D.D.S., M.S., P.A.

B. Argument and Authorities

3. The Court has the authority under Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 38.6(d) to

Page 1 extend the time to file the brief.

4. Movant received Appellee’s Brief on December 22, 2014. Movant’s reply brief

is currently due on January 9, 2015. Movant seeks an extension of 20 days. No previous

extensions have been requested for this reply brief.

5. Movant’s counsels’ schedules have not allowed time to properly prepare

Appellant’s reply brief due to several pending matters which included a planned family

holiday vacation over Christmas and New Years, preparation for critical client

depositions in a U.S. Federal court case out of the Western District of Texas, Austin

Division, and co-counsel’s reply brief due in the Texas Supreme Court in Nations v.

Heitkamp. Movant’s counsel and co-counsel have been involved in daily preparations for

these matters, along with their normal caseload.

C. Conclusion

6. Deana Pollard Sacks, Appellant in this matter, requests the Court grant an

extension of the deadline to file her reply brief until January 29, 2015. This request is not

sought for delay, but so that justice may be done. The matters contained in this motion

are within my personal knowledge and do not require separate verification.

D. Prayer

7. For these reasons, Deana Pollard Sacks, Appellant, asks the Court to grant an

extension of time to file her reply brief until January 29, 2015.
