II.
Due to a clerical error, the wrong document was attached and filed
on 2-20-15. The error was not discovered until 2-23-15. Counsel
requested to refile the document. Hard copies of the correct document
were received by the Court on 2-23-15. The correct document was

of time to file Petitioner’s Amended Motion for Rehearing through
today, 2-26-15.

Court grant this motion and extend the time and deadline for the filing

time as is just and proper.
Respectfully submitted,
