(Collectively, the “Woolim Appellants”) move for an extension of time to file their Cross-Appellants’ Brief, saying. 1. Cross-Appellants’ Brief is currently due on or before March 13, 2015. An extension of thirty (30) days would fall on a Sunday, and the Woolim Appellants therefore seek an extension of thirty-one (31) days, to Monday, April 13, 2015. There have been no previous extensions of time for filing this brief. 2. This extension is needed because the Woolim Appellants: (a) are hampered in their appeal by delays inherent to a Korean bankruptcy proceeding, (b) need time to find new counsel, and (c) need to distill complex arguments from a substantial trial record. The Reporter’s Record 2 shows more than 12 days of trial, and the Woolim Appellants’ Motion for New Trial is more than thirty five (35) pages in length. 3. Counsel for appellants Curocom Energy, LLC and Curo Holdings Co., Ltd. indicated those appellants do not oppose this motion. WHEREFORE, Kim respectfully requests that Cross-Appellants Woolim Resources Development Company, Ltd., Woolim Energy Holdings, LLC and Woolim Construction Company, Ltd. be granted an additional thirty-one (31) days to file their Cross-Appellants’ Brief, and for any such other and further relief to which they may be justly entitled.
