                      MOTION FOR CONTINUANCE

TO THE HONORABLE JUDGE OF THIS COURT:

     Appellants/Cross-appellees, Movants, hereby urge the Court to continue

oral argument and submission of this case, and in support show:

1.   Oral argument is set for September 2, 2015.

2.   Movants seek a continuance of 30 days to allow them to retain new

counsel. Appellants’ current counsel has personal health conditions which have

become disabling and incompatible with continuation of proper representation

of Movants herein. A Motion to Withdraw is filed contemporaneously

herewith. Movants do not oppose the motion to withdraw as long as they have

a reasonable time to allow their substitute counsel opportunity to prepare.

3.   This withdrawal is not sought for delay only but that justice may be done.
                     CERTIFICATE OF CONFERENCE

    4.      Movants have conferred with counsel for Appellees/Cross-

appellants in this action; and they are opposed.

    5.     For the above reasons, Movants request the Court to continue

submission of this case and reset oral argument for thirty days, or as soon

thereafter as the Court can hear the matter.

                                               Respectfully submitted,
