Appellant’s motion for rehearing is currently due on September 14, 

2015. Because of the events and matters described more fully below, 

appellant requests an extension of an additional 30 days in which to file the

motion for rehearing or until October 14, 2015.

II.

The requested extension is necessary because the following matters 

have prevented the undersigned from completing the motion for rehearing 

and will preclude the undersigned from doing so sooner than October 14, 

2015:

1. The undersigned is preparing the appellees’ brief in In re Jack 

Ikenaga, Sr., Deceased, No. 04-15-00005-CV, which is 

currently due on September 23, 2015;

2. The undersigned is lead appellate counsel in Hindes v. La Salle 

County, No. 04-14-00651-CV and is evaluating a motion for rehearing and motion for rehearing en banc following the court 

of appeals’ August 26, 2015 opinion;

3. The undersigned is reviewing and revising motions for summary judgment in George L. Hachar, Sr., No. 2010-CI18274, in the 407th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas; 

and 

4. The undersigned has a pre-planned vacation scheduled and will 

be out of state from September 4, 2015 through September 7, 

2015; and

5. The undersigned has been required to attend out-of-town 

meetings from September 10, 2015 through September 13, 

2015, in connection with his service on the State Bar of Texas 

Executive Committee and as President-elect of the Texas Young 

Lawyers Association.
3

For all of the reasons explained above, counsel for appellant cannot 

complete the motion for rehearing by its current due date of September 14, 

2015, and needs an additional 30 days in which to do so.

III.

On September 2, 2015, the undersigned conferred with Jeff Small, 

lead appellate counsel for appellee. Mr. Small indicated that this motion

would not be opposed.

WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, appellant respectfully 

requests that this Court grant his motion for extension of time in which to file 

the motion for rehearing, extend the deadline in which to file the motion an 

additional 30 days up to and including October 14, 2015, and grant such 

other and further relief to which appellants may be justly and equitably 

entitled.

Respectfully submitted,
