v.
Juan Francisco Martinez, appellee
MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME
TO FILE APPELLEE’S BRIEF
TO THE THIRD COURT OF APPEALS:
Appellee, Juan Francisco Martinez, files this motion for extension of
time to file Appellee’s Brief under Rules 10.1, 10.5(b), and 38.6(d) of the
Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure, and requests the Court to extend the
deadline for filing the appellants’ brief from January 5, 2015 until January
12, 2015. In support of this motion appellee shows:
I.
This is an appeal from the grant of a motion for summary judgment
on a suit to collect on a note. Appellant’s Brief was filed on December 5,
2014.
1
II.
This is appellee’s first request for an extension of time to file
Appellee’s Brief.
III.
The undersigned Timothy Hootman, who is primarily responsible for
preparing Appellee’s Brief, underestimated the time necessary to complete
the brief, and therefore requests the additional 7 days. The Appellee’s Brief
has been filed contemporaneously with this motion.
WHEREFORE, appellee, Juan Francisco Martinez, prays that this
motion be granted and that the Court extend the time to file Appellee’s
Brief from to January 5, 2015, until January 12, 2015.
Respectfully submitted,
