This extension is made necessary due to Appellant’s counsel’s
involvement in the following matter:
Preparation of Appellee’s Brief in the case styled Texas Municipal
League Intergovernmental Risk Pool, Appellant v. Lloyd K. Aldridge,
Appellee, Cause No. 13-14-00670-CV, in the Court of Appeals for the
Thirteenth District of Texas.
Also, Appellee filed his brief on December 22, 2014, shortly before—
and for some, during—the Christmas and New Year holiday season.
People in the office of counsel for Ms. Ortega who would otherwise be
working on the brief, had holiday time off during that period.
This is the first extension of time requested by Appellant, Irma K.
Ortega, on Appellant’s Reply Brief.
Counsel for Appellee has agreed to this extension.
PRAYER FOR RELIEF
Appellant, Irma K. Ortega, requests that the Court grant her motion for
an extension of time to file Appellant’s Reply Brief to a date up to and
including February 9, 2015.
Respectfully submitted,
