                             IESI Corp. and Southside Wrecker, Inc.

                APPELLANT’S MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO
                          FILE BRIEF OF APPELLANT

TO THE HONORABLE COURT OF APPEALS:

       Appellant Judy Weirich, respectfully present this motion to extend time to file her brief

pursuant to TEX. R. APP. P. 10.5(b) and 38.6(d). In support of her motion, Appellant would show

the Court as follows:

                                                I.

       This Court received the clerk’s record on February 4, 2015. This Court received the

court reporter’s record on February 5, 2015.

                                                II.

       Appellant requests an additional 30 days from March 9, 2015, or up to and including

April 8, 2015 within which to file the brief.   This extension is necessary because the following

matters have prevented the completion of the brief and/or will preclude the undersigned from

doing so sooner than March 9, 2015:

           Personal and business commitments of Appellant’s counsel which prohibited counsel

           from preparing the brief within the deadline.

                                           Page 1 of 3
       For this reason, the undersigned did not complete the Appellant’s brief by its current due

date and respectfully requests an additional 30 days from March 9, 2015 within which to do so.

The extension is not sought only for delay, but so that justice can be done.

       WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, Appellant respectfully requests that the

Court grant her motion for extension of time in which to file her brief, extend the current March

9, 2015 deadline 30 days from the date of filing this appeal, up to and including April 8, 2015

and that the Court grant such other and further relief to which Appellant may show herself to be

justly and equitably entitled.

                                              Respectfully submitted,

                                              ZACHARY P. HUDLER, P.C.
