ACCEPTED 03-14-00501-CV 3764498 THIRD COURT OF APPEALS AUSTIN, TEXAS 1/14/2015 12:04:42 PM JEFFREY D. KYLE CLERK No. 03-14-00501-CV
In the Court of Appeals FILED IN 3rd COURT OF APPEALS for the Third Judicial District AUSTIN, TEXAS 1/14/2015 12:04:42 PM at Austin, Texas JEFFREY D. KYLE Clerk
THE COUNTY OF LA SALLE, Appellant, v.
JOE WEBER, IN HIS OFFICIAL CAPACITY AS EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF THE TEXAS DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION; TED HOUGHTON, IN HIS OFFICIAL CAPACITY AS CHAIRMAN OF THE TEXAS TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION; ET AL., Appellees.
On Appeal from the 353rd Judicial District Court of Travis County, Texas
UNOPPOSED FIRST MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME
TO THE HONORABLE THIRD COURT OF APPEALS:
Appellees move to extend the time to file Appellees’ brief pursuant to
Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure 38.6(d) and 10.5(b).
I.
Appellees’ brief is due on January 21, 2015. Appellees request an
additional 30 days to file their brief, extending the time to file to February
20, 2015. II.
This extension is not sought for delay and will prejudice no party. No
previous extensions have been requested for this filing. Appellees’ counsel
has just been assigned the case and needs the additional time to become
familiar with the issues and record in order to provide the Court with helpful
and accurate briefing. This effort has been made more difficult, because on
December 19, 2014, the Supreme Court set Life Partners, Inc. v. State of
Texas, No. 14-0226, for argument on January 15, 2015, and because counsel
has a merits-briefing deadline in Texas Department of State Health Services
v. Balquinta, No. 14-0270, due on January 21, 2015.
III.
Appellees respectfully request that the Court grant a 30 day extension
to file their brief, creating a new deadline of February 20, 2015. Respectfully submitted,
KEN PAXTON Attorney General of Texas
CHARLES E. ROY First Assistant Attorney General
SCOTT KELLER Solicitor General
