            Motion For Leave to File Amended Brief With Appendix

      Pursuant to Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 38.7, Appellee asks this

Honorable Court to grant him leave to file an amended brief with an appendix

(which brief and appendix were filed on the same date as this motion) to correct

technical and grammatical defects, several statutory and internal reference errors,

and to include an appendix.

1. Appellee’s brief was timely filed on October 19, 2015 even though Appellant

   filed an Amended brief only 18 days before Appellee’s brief deadline.

2. Appellee asks this Court to accept his amended brief and appendix filed on

   October 22, 2015, the same date as this motion.

3. The amended brief corrects formatting errors in the index, adds the text for the

                                                                           Page 1" of "4
     points on appeal to the index, corrects defects in the table of authorities,

     corrects several statutory and internal reference errors, and adds an appendix.

4. The Appendix includes all statutes, case law, and orders cited in Appellee’s

     brief.

5. Appellee’s amended brief does not add new points on appeal, new arguments,

     or new case law and, therefore, will cause no delay in the submission of this

     case.

6. The appendix does not include excerpts from the Reporters Record due to the

     number of pages from this record cited by Appellee.

7. Appellee believes that the amended brief and appendix thereto will assist this

     Court and Appellant in reviewing the merits of this case.

                                       PRAYER

        For the foregoing reasons, Appellee asks the Court to grant Appellee the

right to file an amended brief with an appendix on or before the date this Court

rules on this motion.
