                                 RANDY MOE,
                                   Appellee

                    APPEAL FROM CAUSE NO. 13-0192-C26
             26TH DISTRICT COURT OF WILLIAMSON COUNTY, TEXAS
                        HON. DONNA KING, PRESIDING

 UNOPPOSED SECOND MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE
                   APPELLEE’S BRIEF

TO THE HONORABLE THIRD COURT OF APPEALS:

      Appellee Randy Moe files this unopposed second motion requesting a 30-

day extension of time for filing his brief in this appeal. Appellee respectfully

shows:

      1.    Appellee’s brief is currently due on December 20, 2017.
      2.      Appellee requests a 30-day extension of time, or until January 19,

2018, for filing his brief. Appellee has requested one previous extension. And,

Appellant Charles D. Collier does not oppose Appellee’s requested extension.

      3.      The undersigned counsel is solely responsible for preparing

Appellee’s brief. Counsel needs additional time to review the record, conduct the

necessary research, and prepare a brief that will assist the Court in resolving this

appeal. Counsel is also leaving his current firm at the end of the month and

establishing his own practice during the holiday season.

      4.      The demands of other cases have further made this motion necessary.

Specifically, the undersigned has been occupied with or is managing conflicting

deadlines for the following matters:

           • Preparing a motion to dismiss to be filed in No. D-1-GN-07-002493
             before the 419th Judicial District Court in Travis County, Texas,
             Christopher Tovar d/b/a Tovar Construction Company and Bannum,
             Inc. v. Eugene Mees d/b/a Encore House; and

           • Preparing for argument and arguing a case in No. 17-40016 before the
             United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, Julia Ann Flores
             v. United States of America.

      5.      This case has not been set for submission. Therefore, no unnecessary

delay will result from the granting of this extension.

                                          2
                         CONCLUSION AND PRAYER

      For these reasons, Appellee respectfully asks the Court to grant this

unopposed motion for extension of time, thus making his brief due on January 19,

2018. Appellee requests all other appropriate relief to which he is entitled.

                                        Respectfully submitted,
