LYDIA METCALF, Appellant
STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee ____________________________________________________________
On Appeal from the 123rd Judicial District Court Panola County, Texas Trial Court Case No. 2015-C-0290 ___________________________________________________________
APPELLANT’S UNOPPOSED FIRST MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE APPELLANT’S BRIEF ___________________________________________________________
To the Honorable Justices of the Sixth Court of Appeals:
Appellant, Lydia Metcalf, respectfully request the Court to extend the
deadline for filing her Appellant’s Brief by 30 days from April 6, 2018 to
May 6, 2018 pursuant to the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure 10.5 (b)
and 38.6 (d), and in accordance with the local rules of this Honorable Court.
In support thereof, the Appellees would show as follows:
1. The Appellant requests a thirty-day extension of time for the
deadline for filing the Appellant’s Brief such that the Brief is considered
timely filed on May 6, 2018.
2 2. The undersigned counsel is facing severe time constraints for
reviewing the Reporter’s Record and the file in this appeal and preparing a
complete and proper Appellant’s Brief while at the same time complying
with pre-existing deadlines in other cases.
3. Further, the undersigned counsel for Appellant has been
undergoing chemotherapy at M.D. Anderson Hospital in Houston, Texas for
the last four months which has resulted in delays preparing the Appellant’s
Brief in this cause of action. The undersigned counsel was released from
further treatments at M.D. Anderson on March 28, 2018 but will need
additional time to review the evidence, review the Reporter’s Record and
research the legal issues presented in this case.
4. No previous extensions have been granted or requested
regarding the filing of Appellant’s Brief.
5. The undersigned counsel contacted counsel for Appellee on
April 3, 2018 and Appellee’s counsel is not opposed to this Motion for
Extension of Time to file Appellant’s Brief.
6. Based on the foregoing, Appellant respectfully prays that this
Court extend the deadline for filing the Appellant’s Brief by thirty days from
April 6, 2018 to May 6, 2018.
3 Respectfully submitted,
