         RE:           No. 04-15-00 117-CV, Rhino Contractors, LLC v. Vulcan Construction
                       Materials, LP; in the Court of Appeals for the Fourth District of Texas at
                       San Antonio

                              UNOPPOSED LETTER BRIEF IN OPPOSITION
                                      TO APPELLEE'S BRIEF

Dear Mr. Hottle:

        Rhino Contractors, LLC, Appellant, submits this letter brief to call to the Court's
attention certain misstatements of fact in the brief of Appellee Vulcan Construction
Materials, LP. Contemporaneously with the filing of this letter, Appellant is also filing
a motion for leave to file.

        In its brief, Vulcan alleges that "Rhino decided to appeal without a reporter's
record, thus failing to preserve any of the arguments or points of error related to the
sufficiency of its evidence or the insufficiency of Vulcan's." Appellee's Brief at 6.
Appellee further contends, "In the absence of any request for the reporter's record,
Rhino concedes that it produced no credible evidence on the issues of which it now
complains." Id.

       Appellee's statement is incorrect. Defendant requested that the reporter prepare a
record and filed that request on March 4,2015. A true and correct copy of the request is
attached hereto marked Exhibit A. Rhino followed up that request with numerous
communications with the court reporter.         Those requests are attached hereto as
Exhibits B, C, D and E. When counsel was unable to obtain any response from the
court reporter, she contacted the clerk of the Court of Appeals on March 18,2015. The

                                                                     Strasburger         & Price, LLP

clerk contacted the court reporter and ascertained that no evidence was adduced at the
"prove-up" hearing on the entry of the default judgment,

            Accordingly, no reporter's record of the prove-up hearing was filed because none
exists.

       With reference to the hearing on the motion to set aside the default judgment, the
transcript of the hearing attached to Appellee's brief confirms that no evidence, other
than that included in the clerk's record, was introduced at that hearing either.

       Accordingly, the judgment should be reversed and remanded for trial. In the
alternative, because there is no legally sufficient evidence to support the damages,
interest and attorney's fees awarded by the trial court, the judgment should be reversed
and remanded for trial on those awards.

                                            Respectfully submitted,

COUNTY OF BEXAR                           §

           BEFORE ME, the undersigned notary, on this day personally appeared Judith R. Blakeway,

the affiant, whose identity is known to me. After I administered an oath, affiant testified as follows:

            1.         My name is Judith R. Blakeway. I am more than eighteen years of age, of sound

mind, and fully competent to make this affidavit. The facts stated in this affidavit are within my

personal knowledge and are true and correct.

           2.          I am one of the attorneys of record for Appellant Rhino Contractors, LLC in the

above-styled and numbered cause.

           3.          On March 4,2015 I requested that the reporter prepare the record in this case. A true

and correct copy is attached hereto as Exhibit A. I followed up that request with numerous emails,

1 824272.1/SPSAl36984/01   01/050415
true and correct copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibits B, C, D and E. Although I sent

multiple requests to the court reporter asking whether a reporter's record had been created for the

prove-up hearing on the entry of the default judgment, I was unable to obtain any response.

           4.         On March 18, 2015, I contacted the Clerk of the Court of Appeals to request

assistance.

           5.         On March 19,2015, the Clerk of the Court of Appeals advised me that Luis Duran,

the court reporter, confirmed that there was no record because no evidence was adduced at the

hearing when the default judgment was entered.

           FURTHER AFFIANT SAYETH NOT.

                                                                                                   ~\~~

Mr. Duran,

If it is correct that no record was made of the default in this case, would you please sign the attached affidavit before a
notary and return it to me for filing with the Court of Appeals?

If it is not correct, could you please let me know.

Thank you,
