                            Attorneys for all Appellants
TO THE HONORABLE FIFTH COURT OF APPEALS:

      Shore Chan DePumpo LLP and Edward Mandel (collectively the

“Appellants”), hereby move this Court to extend the time to file their reply brief by

7 days. Appellants have conferred with counsel for the Appellees and Appellees

have agreed to this motion for an extension. In further support of this motion, the

Appellants assert the following:

      1. Current Deadline March 2, 2015. The reply brief for the Appellants is

          due on March 2, 2015.

      2. Length of Extension: 7 days. The Appellants respectfully request an

          extension of the current deadline be enlarged by 7 days to file their brief

          so that the new due date would be March 9, 2015.

      3. Basis for Extension: The Appellants request additional time for briefing

          due to the schedules of their counsel. The extension is not sought for

          delay but to ensure justice can be done.

      4. Agreed Upon Motion: As noted above, counsel for Appellees has

          agreed to the Appellants’ request for a 7-day extension. It would not be

          prejudicial for this court to grant the motion.

      WHEREFORE, for the foregoing reasons, the Appellants respectfully pray

that this Court grant their motion for an extension of time to file their brief so that
the new deadline will be March 9, 2015. The Appellants pray for any other relief

to which they may be entitled.

                                     Respectfully submitted,
