  Medina-Atascosa Counties Water Control and
      Improvement District No. 1, Appellees

        FIRST MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME
       TO FILE APPELLEES’ BRIEF (UNOPPOSED)

      Appellees Judith and Terry Robinson, Gary and Brenda Fest, Virginia

Gray, and Butch Townsend file their first motion for extension of time to

file Appellees’ brief. Appellees’ brief is currently due on May 7, 2015. Tex.

R. App. P. 38.6.    This motion is filed prior to the due date. Appellant’s

counsel does not oppose this motion.

      Appellees need additional time to prepare and file their brief.

Appellees ask the Court to grant an extension of time to Monday June 8,

2015, an extension of 30 days.

      When Appellants filed their brief, Appellees became aware of a

potential need to request supplementation of the appellate record.

Accordingly, Appellees filed two reporter’s record requests, on April 17 and

April 30, after expending a week or so tracking down the court reporters,

neither of whom still worked at the 216th Judicial District Court.

      Additionally, Appellees’ counsel was retained to assist in a complex

proceeding, City of San Antonio Board of Adjustment & Sarosh Mgmt, LLC

v. East Central ISD, Cause No. 04-14-00341-CV, due to the unexpected

demise of Sarosh Managements’ counsel prior to filing a motion for

rehearing related to this Court’s opinion issued on March 18, 2015. The

motion for rehearing is due to be filed May 4, 2015.

      The extension requested herein is sought in the interest of justice and

not for purpose of delay, and will not harm or prejudice any party.

                                   PRAYER

      Appellees respectfully request that this Court grant the requested

extension of time, and any other proper or necessary relief.
