                   APPELLANTS’ FIRST UNOPPOSED MOTION
                 FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE REPLY BRIEF

TO THE HONORABLE COURT OF APPEALS:

         COMES NOW Osvaldo Rodriguez Borunda and Editora Paso Del Norte,

S.A. de C.V., Appellants, and files this, their First Unopposed Motion for an

Extension of Time to File Appellants’ Reply Brief, and in support thereof, would

respectfully show as follows:

         1.       Appellants filed their Brief on September 2, 2021.

         2.       Appellee’s Response Brief was due on September 30, 2021. Appellee

was granted an extension until October 13, 2021 to file his Brief.

         3.       Appellee filed his Response Brief on October 14, 2021.

{1130.153/HDAV/06856112.1}
         4.       Appellants’ Reply Brief is due to be filed November 3, 2021.

         5.       Appellants request an extension of time to November 15, 2021 to file

their Reply Brief.

         6.       This extension is requested because Appellants’ attorney will be

unable to complete the Reply Brief by the due date because of counsel’s

responsibilities on other urgent client matters.

         7.       This is Appellants’ first motion for an extension of time to file

Appellants’ Reply Brief. This request is not made for purposes of delay, but so

that justice may be done. Appellee has consented to this request.

         8.       For these reasons, Appellants, requests an extension of time to

November 15, 2021 to file Appellants’ Reply Brief, and such other and further

relief to which they may be justly entitled.

                                    Respectfully submitted,
