     APPELLANT’S SECOND UNOPPOSED MOTION TO EXTEND TIME TO FILE BRIEF

        Appellant asks the Court to extend the time to file his brief.
                                         A. INTRODUCTION
1.      Appellant is Raghunath Dass, P.E.; appellee is the Texas Board of Professional Engineers.
2.      There is no specific deadline to file this motion to extend time. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.6(d).
3.      Appellant’s counsel has conferred with Appellee’s counsel, who stated that she is unopposed
to this motion and the proposed new time to file brief for Appellant.
                                  B. ARGUMENT & AUTHORITIES
4.      The Court has the authority under Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 38.6(d) to extend the
time to file a brief.
5.      Appellant’s brief is due on January 16, 2015.
6.      Appellant requests an additional 14 days to file his brief, extending the time until January
30, 2015.
7.      One previous extension has been granted to extend the time to file Appellant’s brief.
8.      Appellant needs additional time to file his brief because attorneys for both parties have
consulted and agreed to change the scope of the issues addressed.
                                           C. CONCLUSION
10.     Appellant is requesting an extension of time to file his brief so that the scope of both briefs
can be adjusted in accordance with the informal agreement between the parties. Appellant believes
that an extension of time to file his brief until January 30, 2015 will be sufficient to allow both
parties to make the necessary revisions.
