    TEXAS PROPERTY AND CASUALTY INSURANCE GUARANTY ASSOCIATION,

                                     Appellee

                 APPEAL FROM CAUSE NO. D-1-GN-09-001428
           250TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT OF TRAVIS COUNTY, TEXAS
                         HON. JOHN DIETZ PRESIDING

            UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME
                   TO FILE APPELLANTS’ BRIEF

TO THE HONORABLE THIRD COURT OF APPEALS:

      Appellants CorpSol, Inc., Corporate Solutions, Inc., Corporate Solutions

Services, Inc., and 4XE, Inc., file this motion requesting a thirty-day extension of

time for filing their opening brief in the above-referenced appeal. Appellants

respectfully show:

      1.    Appellants’ brief is currently due on July 13, 2015.
      2.     Appellants request a 30-day extension of time, or until August 12,

2015, for filing their brief. Appellants have requested no previous extensions.

      3.     Out of town travel and the demands of other cases have made this

motion necessary. From June 21 through June 26, 2015, the undersigned counsel

chaperoned a youth mission trip that precluded him from performing any

substantive work over that period. Since then, counsel has been occupied with the

following matters:

           • a petition for writ of mandamus and emergency motion for temporary
             relief filed on July 1, 2015 in No. 03-15-00406-CV, In re Brad
             Haskins and Sue Miller;

           • a petition for writ of mandamus and emergency motion for temporary
             relief filed on July 1, 2015 with the Eighth Court of Appeals in No.
             08-15-00406-CV, In re Mario Alonzo Cisneros;

           • a petition for review filed on July 6, 2015 with the Texas Supreme in
             No. 15-0338, Tom Bennett and James B. Bonham Corp. v. Larry
             Wayne Grant; and

           • a reply brief to be filed by July 10, 2015 with the Fourteenth Court of
             Appeals in No. 14-15-00024-CV, Microsoft Corporation v. Michael
             Mercieca.

      4.     This case has not been set for submission. Therefore, no unnecessary

delay will result from the granting of this extension.

      5.     Appellee does not oppose the relief sought in this motion.

                                          2
                         CONCLUSION AND PRAYER

      For these reasons, appellants respectfully request that the Court grant this

motion for extension of time, thus making their opening brief due on August 12,

2015. Appellants request all other appropriate relief to which they are entitled.

                                       Respectfully submitted,
