           On Appeal from the County Court at Law, Bexar County, Texas

      APPELLEE’S OPPOSED MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME
                      TO FILE HIS BRIEF

TO THE HONORABLE FOURTH COURT OF APPEALS:

      APPELLEE, DAVID SUBIA (“Appellee”), respectfully present his Motion

for Extension of Time to file His Brief, and would respectfully show the Court as

follows:

                                              I.

       On August 21, 2017, Appellants filed their Amended Brief. Appellee’s

Brief was due on September 20, 2017. Appellees request an extension of time to

file their brief for the following reasons:
    The undersigned attended numerous hearings during the week of August 21,

      2017 to August 25, 2017 in child custody and real estate matters;

    The undersigned participated in a two-day mediation on August 30, 2017

      and September 1, 2017;

    The undersigned worked on a petition for review to the Texas Supreme

      Court during the week of September 5, 2017 to September 8, 2017;

    The undersigned’s office was closed for Labor Day on September 4, 2017;

      and

    The length of Appellants’ Brief requires additional time to respond.

                                         II.

      Appellee asks this Court to extend the time to file their Brief for thirty days

up to and including October 20, 2017. Appellants have been granted numerous

extensions of time in the past.

                                        III.

      This motion is not brought for purposes of delay but solely that justice may

be served.

      WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, APPELLEE prays that he be

given an additional thirty (30) days to respond to Appellants’ Brief. Appellee

prays for such other relief to which he may be entitled consistent with this Court’s

ruling.

                     CERTIFICATE OF CONFERENCE

       On September 20, 2017, Appellee’s counsel called pro se Appellant,
Anthony Moore, who refused to discuss this matter without a submission in
writing. A proposed motion was sent to him. Pro se Appellant then filed an
opposition to this motion without ever receiving the proposed motion or discussing
it. This motion is therefore opposed.
