                                 ATTORNEYS FOR APPELLEES
TO THE HONORABLE FIRST COURT OF APPEALS:

        Pursuant to TEX. R. APP. P. 10.1 and 38.6(d), the Appellees, MANH HOANG and DUNG

LE, file this Unopposed First Motion to Extend Time to File Appellees’ Brief.

        Appellees’ opening brief is currently due on August 28, 2015.

        Counsel for Appellees request a 30-day extension of time to file its brief, making the brief

due on September 28, 2015. This is the first request for extension of time to file the opening brief.

        Counsel for Appellees rely on the following reason, in addition to the routine matters that

counsel must attend to in daily practice, to explain the need for the requested extension:

        Counsel for Appellees has encountered a computer related issue regarding the data
        on his drive that were corrupted.

        Counsels for Appellees seek this extension of time to be able to prepare a cogent and

succinct brief to aid this Court in its analysis of the issues presented. This request is not sought for

delay but so that justice may be done.

        The undersigned has conferred with opposing counsel, and he has indicated that his client

does not oppose this motion.

        All facts recited in this motion are within the personal knowledge of the counsel signing this

motion, therefore no verification is necessary under Rule of Appellate Procedure 10.2.

                                      PRAYER FOR RELIEF

        For the reasons set forth above, Appellees request that this Court grant this Unopposed First

Motion to Extend Time to File Appellees’ Brief and extend the Deadline for Filing the Appellees’

Brief up to and including September 28, 2015. Appellees pray for all other relief to which it may be

entitled.

                                                Respectfully submitted,
                                                Bui & Nhan, PLLC.
