      APPELLEE’S SECOND MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME

TO THE HONORABLE COURT OF APPEALS:

COMES NOW APPELLEE, ETHIOPIAN EVANGELICAL CHURCH, who files

the following:

   1. Appellee’s deadline to file its Appeal Brief is April 24, 2015.

Appellee’s Second Motion for Extension of Time to File Appellee’s Brief                 Page 1
   2. Part of the practice of Appellee’s counsel involves a foreclosure prevention

      program and the prevention of evictions. Counsel for Appellee is presently

      dealing with an emergency situation concerning clients who are facing

      immediate eviction from their homes and, next week, counsel for Appellee

      will be working to prevent foreclosures for clients who are scheduled to

      have their homes sold due to foreclosure proceedings on May 5, 2015. For

      these reasons, counsel for Appellee is in need of additional time to complete

      and file the Appellee’s Appeal Brief.

   3. Appellee requests a two-week extension of time on which to file its Appeal

      Brief to May 8, 2015.

WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, Appellee prays this Court grant its

Motion for Extension of Time to File its Appeal Brief and extend its deadline to

file same to May 8, 2015.

                                                    Respectfully submitted,
