APPELLEE'S UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE
APPELLEE'S BRIEF WITH CERTIFICATE OF CONFERENCE
TO THE HONORABLE JUSTICES OF THIS COURT:
COMES NOW GUY ROBB COWEN, APPELLANT-MOVANT, herein and files his
Motion for Extension of Time to File Appellee's Brief, pursuant to Local Rules 47 and 52 and
Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure 10.1 and 10.5(b)(1), and in support thereof shows the
following:
I. BACKGROUND AND BASIS FOR EXTENSION
Briefly, by way of background, the undersigned counsel was served Appellant's brief on
or about December 10, 2014, making the Appellee's brief on this same day. Despite efforts to
complete the brief over the holidays, Appellee cannot meet the deadline effectively. No previous
extensions have been requested by Appellee. The undersigned counsel, aside from having a trial
practice, is currently working on a total of five (5) briefs with two (2) of those being Petitions for
Certiorari to the U.S. Supreme Court from the US Court of Appeals in the 10 th and 5th Circuits.
The undersigned counsel is a solo practitioner. Additionally, it appears that the record may need
to be supplemented with a hearing transcript that has not been provided to the Court, at this time,
and which is material and relevant to the claims raised by Appellant in her brief. The undersigned
counsel seeks a thirty (30) day extension to allow her to assure there is a complete record before
the Court and adequate time to address all matters thoroughly.

II. GOOD CAUSE AND NOT FOR DELAY
The Motion is not filed due to Movant's actions or omissions of any kind. Moreover, the
motion is not sought for delay and is in the interest of justice and to honor this country’s
constitutional mandates to the right to effective assistance of counsel and due process.
WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, the undersigned counsel prays that
Appellee-Movant be granted an extension of time to file his brief in the proceeding herein.
Respectfully submitted,
By:___/s/__Marie E. Galindo_______
