17, 2015.

8. Appellant needs additional time to file his brief because appellant’s attorney has been ill and
still recovering, because of unresolved confusion regarding the District Clerk’s filing a supplemental
record as a result of the District Court’s approval of Appellant’s/Plaintiff’s Second Amended Formal
Bill of Exception, and because of the convergence of deadlines upon appellant’s attorney for January
30 - 31, 2015, of which he was unaware when he sought the prior extension to January 30, 2015.
