         3. Appellants request the Court to reconsider and grant oral argument in this case.

         4. The Appellee's lead Counsel, Jeff Small, was contacted on Thursday, January

15,2015, at 10:27 a.m., regarding opposition or consent. A detailed message was left If

opposition is filed, a telephone hearing is requested at movant's expense.

         5. The facts stated herein are within the personal knowledge of counsel who has
verified this motion.

         WHEREFORE, premises considered, Appellants William and Patricia Collins

through counsel James R. Chapman, Jr., respectfully requests the Court to permit oral
argument in this case. Movant prays for general relief.

                                              Respectfully submitted,
