APPELLANT’S UNOPPOSED MOTION TO EXTEND TIME TO FILE BRIEF

TO THE HONORABLE COURT:

Appellant Kristin Lee asks the Court to extend the time to file her brief until

July 24, 2015.

I. INTRODUCTION

1. Appellant is Kristin Lee. Appellee is K & N Management, Inc. d\b\a

Rudy’s Country Store and Bar-B-Q.

2. A deadline of July 24, 2015 has been set by the Court to file a

response to the Clerk’s letter of July 14, 2015. The letter notified Appellant that

her brief was due as of June 26, 2015, as the Clerk’s record was filed May 20,

2015. Appellant’s attorney received an e-mail indicating that the Clerk’s record

had been filed; however, that e-mail was not read by counsel until the Clerk’s letter

of July 14, 2015 was received.

3. The parties have agreed to this motion. II. ARGUMENT & AUTHORITIES

4. The Court has the authority under Tex. R. App. P. 38.6(d) to extend

the time to file a brief.

5. Appellant’s brief was due on June 26, 2015.

6. Appellant requests that she be permitted to file her brief on July 24,

2015.

7. No previous extension has been granted to extend the time to file

Appellant’s brief.

8. Though an e-mail from the Clerk was sent to Appellant’s counsel on

June 26, 2015 indicating that the Clerk’s record had been filed (and triggering the

deadline for Appellant to file her brief), the e-mail was not seen by Appellant’s

counsel until the Clerk’s letter of July 14, 2015 was sent. Appellant’s brief is

prepared and will be filed concurrent with this request for extended time to file

III. CONCLUSION

9. Appellant asks for additional time to file her brief. Appellant’s brief

was due on June 26, 2015 and Appellant request that she be permitted until July

24, 2015 to file her brief, which is being filed concurrent with this request.

IV. PRAYER

10. For these reasons, Appellant Kristin Lee asks the Court to grant an

extension of time to file her brief until July 24, 2015.
