     MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE APPELLEES’ BRIEF

      Appellees, the Texas Board of Chiropractic Examiners, and Yvette

Yarbrough, Executive Director in her official capacity, (“TBCE”) respectfully ask

this Court for an extension of time to file Appellees’ Brief pursuant to Texas Rules

of Appellate Procedure 10.5(b) and 38.6(d). TBCE’s brief is due September 9,

2015. TBCE respectfully requests an additional thirty days in which to file its brief,

making the brief due to be filed on or before October 9, 2015. This is TBCE’s first

request for an extension. Appellant is not opposed to this request.

      This extension is needed due to the undersigned counsel’s extensive duties

in connection with implementation of legislative changes and other duties to his

client agencies. This request is not made for purposes of delay, but to allow the

undersigned counsel time to properly prepare Appellees’ Brief, and so that justice

can be done.

      For the above reasons, TBCE respectfully requests that the Court grant this

unopposed motion and extend the deadline for filing TBCE’s brief up to and

including October 9, 2015.

                                       Respectfully submitted,
