           On Appeal from the 336th District Court of Fannin County, Texas
                  The Honorable Laurine J. Blake, Judge Presiding
______________________________________________________________________________

                    UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR EXTENSION
                     OF TIME TO FILE APPELLEES’ BRIEF
______________________________________________________________________________

                                                  I.

       Appellees move for an unopposed extension of time to file their brief and state the following

in support:

UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR EXTENSION
OF TIME TO FILE APPELLEES’ BRIEF                                                          PAGE -1-
        Appellees’ brief is due to be filed on December 14, 2015. Appellees respectfully request a

thirty-day extension of time, until January 13, 2016, to file their brief. Appellees have not previously

requested an extension of time to file their brief. Appellees are not filing this motion for the purpose

of delay, but in the interest of justice.

                                                  II.

        Appellees’ counsel is Thomas F. Dunn. Mr. Dunn underwent a double disc spinal fusion

on October 16, 2015. His post operative recovery has limited the amount of time he has been able

to spend in the office to handle client matters. Consequently, Mr. Dunn’s client work load has been

jammed up. Due to the physical limitations on the amount of time he could spend on pending client

matters, Mr. Dunn will be unable to complete Appellees’ brief in this case by the December 14, 2015

deadline.

                                                  III.

        WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, Appellees pray that this Court enter an order

granting their Unopposed Motion for Extension of Time to File Appellees’ Brief and specifying that

Appellees’ brief be filed on or before January 13, 2016.

Respectfully submitted,
