                                Helen Purser, et al.
                                    Appellee

           On Appeal from the 146th Judicial District Court of
                  Bell County, Cause No. 236,117-B

                                      UNOPPOSED
                          MOTION FOR LEAVE TO FILE
                            POST-SUBMISSION BRIEF

TO THE HONORABLE COURT OF APPEALS:
                                            1.
      This case was presented to Chief Justice Rose and Justices Field and Borland

on October 22, 2015. Jerry Scarbrough, Melissa Deaton and Denise Steele Pierce

are the appellant/third-party defendants. Helen Purser, Bubba Purser, Elizabeth

Purser Tipton, Sue E. Van Zanten, and JoAnn Purser (the “Purser Family”) are the

appellees/third-party plaintiffs.
                                          2.

        On November 12, 2015, counsel for the Pursers filed a post-submission brief,

to answer questions the panel had asked both counsel. Counsel for the third-party

defendants now asks for leave to also answer these questions that were asked of both

parties. Counsel for the Purser Family does not object to the granting of leave to

file.

                                          3.

        There have been no prior post-submission briefs in this case except for Mr.

Moore’s submission for the Purser family. It would skew the presentation of this

case if these post-submission briefs were not allowed, because the time allotted to

argument was not enough to properly answer all questions and address all major

issues.

                            CONCLUSION & PRAYER

        Filing of this post-submission brief is unopposed by counsel for the Pursers.

These briefs are not particularly long, but allow the justices’ questions to be

answered.

        WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, the third-party defendants ask

this Court for Leave to File Third-Party Defendants’ Post-submission Letter Brief

and for such other and further relief as may be just.
                                             Respectfully submitted,
