            PIPE CREEK WATER WELL, LLC and ROBERT RAE POWELL


           Cause No. 2013-CI-00386; Appeal from the 408th Judicial District Court,
                                  Bexar County, Texas



           APPELLEES’ MOTION FOR LEAVE TO FILE AMENDED BRIEF


TO THE HONORABLE JUSTICES OF THE FOURTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT APPEALS
COURT:

       NOW COME, Appellees, ROBERT RAE POWELL and PIPE CREEK WATER WELL,

LLC, and file this Motion for Leave to File Amended Brief and will show as follows:

       1. Appellees filed their brief on February 19, 2015.

       2. On March 19, 2015, Appellant filed Appellant’s Reply Brief. Therein, Appellant

objects to Appellees’ brief and mistakenly attributes the requirements of an appellant’s brief

enumerated in Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 38.1 to an appellee’s brief. The requirements

of an appellee’s brief are enumerated in Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 38.2.

       3. Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 38.2 does not require an appellee’s brief to include

specific citations to the record. However, Appellees’ have amended their brief to include such
citations out of an over abundance of caution and for the ease and convenience of this Honorable

Court.

         4. Therefore, Appellees request leave of Court to file an amended brief which includes

citations to the record where appropriate.

                                             PRAYER

         Appellees, ROBERT RAE POWELL and PIPE CREEK WATER WELL, LLC pray that

this motion be filed, that leave of Court be granted, and that they have such other relief, in law or

equity, to which they may be justly entitled.
