APPELLANT’S UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR LEAVE TO FILE RESPONSE TO APPELLEE’S POST-SUBMISSION BRIEF ______________________________

TO THE HONORABLE COURT OF APPEALS:

COMES NOW Appellant, the University of Texas at Austin (“UT”), and submits this

Unopposed Motion for Leave to Respond to Appellee’s Post-Submission Brief.

1. This appeal is from the 200th Judicial District Court of Travis County’s denial of UT’s Plea

to the Jurisdiction. Appellant filed its brief with the Third Court of Appeals on or about

September 9, 2014. Appellee filed her response brief on or about September 29, 2014.

Appellant filed its reply on October 16, 2014. Oral arguments were heard on November

19, 2014.

2. During oral arguments, the panel questioned counsel about Resendez v. Texas Commission

on Environmental Quality, 391 S.W.3d 312 (Tex. App.—Austin 2012, pet. granted). 3. On November 21, 2014, two days after oral arguments in the present case, the Texas

Supreme court issued its opinion in Texas Commission on Environmental Quality v.

Resendez, No. 13-0094, 2014 WL 6612570 (Tex. Nov. 21, 2014), reversing the Third Court

of Appeals opinion.

4. Appellee requested leave to submit a post-submission brief discussing, in part, the Texas

Supreme Court’s ruling on Resendez.

5. Appellant requests leave to file a response to Appellee’s Post-Submission brief.

6. This motion is not made for delay alone, but so that justice may be done.

CONCLUSION AND PRAYER

7. Appellant therefore prays that this Honorable Court grant this Motion for Leave and permit

Appellant an opportunity to respond to Appellee’s Post-Submission Brief. Respectfully submitted,
