On Appeal from Cause No. 2012-CI-00251, 225th Judicial District Court of Bexar County
______________________________________________________________________________

                         APPELLEE'S MOTION FOR EXTENSION

TO THE HONORABLE JUSTICES OF THE COURT OF APPEALS:

       COME NOW Appellees, JOHNNY MONTOYA GARZA, JOHN RENE AGUILAR,

LAURA ASHLEY WELLS and JOHNNY B. WELLS, and respectfully request that this

Honorable Court grant an additional five days to file their brief on appeal. In support thereof,

they would show the following:

                                              I.     Jurisdiction

       This court has jurisdiction to grant an extension of time pursuant to Tex. R. Civ. App. Rule

38.6(d).

       Appellees’ brief is due June 12th. Appellants’ redrawn brief was filed on May 11, 2015 as

ordered by the Court after an initial brief was filed April 20, 2015 upon a thirty day extension.

       Appellees’ counsel requests such additional time as necessary to complete a competently

prepared brief fully in compliance with the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure and, being

technologically challenged, to assemble an appendix in pdf format, with appropriate references to

the same.
        Appellees would respectfully show that failure to file on this, the due date, was not

deliberate or intentional but the result of inadvertence, mistake and mischance.

        WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, Appellees respectfully pray for additional

five days to file their brief on appeal, and for such other and further relief to which they may be

justly entitled.

                                                     Respectfully submitted,
