                  APPELLEES’ MOTION TO EXTEND TIME
                       TO FILE APPELLANTS’ BRIEF
               _________________________________________________

      Appellees Aloysius Duy-Hung Hoang, Cavatina Truong, Skybird Nguyen and

Teresa Ngoc-Bich Hoang moves this Court for an extension of time to file Appellees’

Brief and would show this Court as follows:

      Appellees file this motion pursuant to Tex. R. App. P. 10.5(b). The deadline for

filing Appellant’s Brief is Wednesday, June 10, 2015. Appellees seek a 30-day

extension of the deadline, making July 10, 2015 the new deadline.

      Appellees’ counsel lost his office to a Buffalo Bayou flood on May 26, 2015 and

needs additional time to move into a new office, get organized, and draft Appellees’

Brief. Appellees have not previously sought an extension for the briefing deadline.
       WHEREFORE, appellees Aloysius Duy-Hung Hoang, Cavatina Truong,

Skybird Nguyen and Teresa Ngoc-Bich Hoang move and respectfully pray that the

deadline for filing Appellees’ Brief be extended until July 10, 2015.
