               M&E ENDEAVOURS LLC,

                                                                       APPELLANT,

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

To the First Court of Appeals:

       Appellant, M&E Endeavours LLC, files this motion for extension of time to file Appellant's

Brief under Rules 10.1, 10.5(b), and 38.6(d) of the Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure, and requests

the Court to extend the deadline for filing the appellants' brief from September 8, 2015, until October

8, 2015. In support of this motion appellant shows:

                                                  I.

       This is an appeal from final judgment after a jury trial in a breach of contract case. The final

judgment was signed on that was signed on December 12, 2014. A motion for new trial was timely

filed. The notice of appeal was filed on March 12, 2015.

                                                  II.

       The clerk's record was filed on April 28, 2015; the reporter's record was filed on August 6,
2015. Appellant's Brief is due on September 8, 2015. This is appellant's first request for an extension

of time.

                                                 III.

       The reason for the need of the additional time is that the undersigned counsel, a sole

practitioner, was in his summer vacation pursuant to a vacation letter filed with the Harris District

Clerk and returned from such vacation on August 10, 2015. Since that time he has been required to

attend to several urgent legal matters and needs additional time to review the clerk’s record and the

reporter’s record and to file the Appellant’s Brief.

       WHEREFORE, appellant, M&E Endeavours LLC, requests the Court to grant this motion

and extend the time to file appellant's brief to October 8, 2015.

                                               Respectfully submitted,
