              Appealed from the 45th Judicial District Court of
                          Bexar County, Texas
                        Cause No. 2012-CI-12940

 APPELLANT'S UNOPPOSED MOTION TO EXTEND TIME TO FILE
                  APPELLANT'S BRIEF
           _____________________________________________

Appellant asks the Court to extend the time to file Appellant's Brief.

                            A. INTRODUCTION
 1. Appellant is Kafai Lee; appellees are Kenneth Lau, Connie Andrews,

Golden Wok, Ltd.

 2. There is no specific deadline to file this motion to extend time. Texas R.
App. P. 38.6(d).

                     B. ARGUMENT & AUTHORITIES

  3. The Court may grant an extension of time under Texas Rule of Appellate

Procedure 38.6(d) and 10.5(b).

  4. The deadline to file the Appellant's Brief is Friday, August 28, 2015.

  5. Appellant, Kafai Lee, requests an additional seven days to file Appellant's

Brief, extending the time until September 4, 2015.

  6. No extension has been granted to extend the time to file the Appellant's

Brief.

  7. Appellant needs additional time to file the Appellant's Brief because of a

technical error with the email notices provided by coa4noticingservice.com.

Appellant's lead attorney was not sent a notice that the reporter's record had

been filed, and as a result, the deadline to file Appellant's brief was not

calendared. Appellant has only had the reporter's and clerk's records for a few

days, and requires more time to complete his brief with the appropriate citation

to the respective records.
                              C. CONCLUSION

  8. Appellant Kafai Lee asks the Court to grant a seven day extension to allow

sufficient time to complete Appellant's Brief.

                                 D. PRAYER

 9. For these reasons, Appellant Kafai Lee asks the Court to grant an extension

of time to file Appellant's Brief until Friday, September 4, 2015.

                                            Respectfully submitted,
