Production Corporation, Appellants in the above cause, respectfully move for an

      1.    On August 12, 2015, the Court rendered its Opinion in this appeal.

Appellants intend to file a Motion for Rehearing and/or Rehearing En Banc, in

accordance with Rule 49 of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure.

      2.    The current due date for filing Appellants’ Motion for Rehearing and/or

Rehearing En Banc, is Thursday, September 10, 2015.           Due to extenuating

circumstances, Appellants hereby request an additional two (2) weeks, or until

Thursday, September 24, 2015, and hereby provide the following in support:

      a.    Since the date of the Court’s issuance of the Opinion, Appellants’

            counsel has been substantially occupied with other professional

            commitments and personal obligations, including travel associated with

            the Labor Day weekend and as part of Mr. Rivera’s duties as a member

            of the Texas Board of Law Examiners, he was in Austin, Texas, on

            Thursday, September 10, 2015, and Friday, September 11, 2015, for the

            regularly scheduled monthly meeting.

                                        2
      3.     This is Appellants’ second request for an extension of time to file their

Motion for Rehearing and/or Rehearing En Banc and, as shown herein, good cause

exists for the granting of the extension.

            CERTIFICATE OF CONFERENCE: MOTION IS UNOPPOSED

      4.     Mr. Baldemar Garcia, appellate counsel for the Appellees, has been

consulted regarding this motion and he has indicated that Appellees do not oppose

Appellants’ request for an extension.

      5.     This extension is not sought for delay, but so that justice be done.

                                      PRAYER

      Appellants pray that this unopposed motion be granted and that the time for

filing Appellants’ Motion for Rehearing and/or Rehearing En Banc be extended by

two (2) weeks, to September 24, 2015. Appellants pray for all such other and further

relief to which they may be entitled at law or in equity.
