2. This extension would make Appellee’s brief due on or before Friday,
January 23, 2026.
3. Counsel for Appellee has five hearings that have been scheduled in
December, and currently Appellee’s brief is due on December 29, 2025,
just days after Christmas and right before New Year when the Office of

allow Appellee’s counsel the time to adequately prepare and file its brief.
