ATTORNEYS FOR CROSS-APPELLANT
TEXAS WINDSTORM INSURANCE ASSOCIATION
Pursuant to Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 10.5(b), Cross-Appellant
Texas Windstorm Insurance Association (“TWIA”) files its Unopposed Second
Motion for extension of Time to file its brief.
TWIA’s cross-appellant brief is currently due on June 15, 2015. This is
TWIA’s second request for an extension of thirty days in which to file its brief,
which would make the cross-appellant brief due on July 15, 2015. Appellant
League City has also requested a second thirty-day extension to file its brief, which
this Court granted on June 5, 2015, making League City’s appellant brief also due
on July 15, 2015. TWIA agreed not to oppose League City’s first two requests for
extension and League City has not opposed this request.
TWIA needs a thirty-day extension of time to file its brief because it is
awaiting supplementation of both the Clerk’s record and the Court Reporter’s
record, which it will need to pursue its appellate remedies in addition to the partial
record requested and filed by League City. Also, counsel has other deadlines and
responsibilities which also demand his attention. A short, thirty-day extension of
time would allow for preparation of the brief.
This extension is not sought for delay but that justice may be done. See
TEX. R. APP. P. 10.5(b)(1)(C).
PRAYER
For these reasons, Cross-Appellant Texas Windstorm Insurance Association
prays this Court grant a thirty-day extension of time to file its brief, to and
2
including July 15, 2015. Cross-Appellant also prays for such further relief to
which it may be entitled.
Respectfully submitted,
BRACEWELL & GIULIANI LLP
