Carrizo Oil & Gas, Inc. v. Barrow-Shaver Resources Company

ACCEPTED 12-15-00083-CV TWELFTH COURT OF APPEALS TYLER, TEXAS 10/13/2015 1:06:12 PM Pam Estes CLERK No. 12-15-00083 FILED IN 12th COURT OF APPEALS In the Twelfth District Court of Appeals TYLER, TEXAS Tyler, Texas 10/13/2015 1:06:12 PM PAM ESTES Clerk CARRIZO OIL & GAS, INC., Appellant, v. BARROW-SHAVER RESOURCES COMPANY, Appellee. On Appeal from the 7th Judicial District Court Smith County, Texas Cause No. 12-2565-A APPELLANT’S UNOPPOSED SECOND MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE APPELLANT’S BRIEF Appellant Carrizo Oil & Gas, Inc. (“Carrizo”) respectfully files this Unopposed Second Motion for Extension of Time to File Appellant’s Brief. The current deadline for filing Appellant’s Brief is October 23, 2015. Appellant requests a 30-day extension of time for a new deadline of November 23, 2015. The reasons for this request are as follows: The reporter’s record in this case was filed on August 24, 2015, and it contains 36 volumes of transcripts and exhibits from a two-week jury trial. In reviewing the Reporter’s Record, the undersigned noted that the questions and answers contained in the videotaped depositions that were played to the jury at trial were not included in the Reporter’s Record, although the parties agree that the portions of those depositions designated by Plaintiff were in fact presented to the jury by video. In addition, the Clerk’s Record contains 15 volumes of papers, and there are several items that need to be corrected and supplemented in the Clerk’s Record. Carrizo is working with opposing counsel to prepare a stipulation to complete the Reporter’s Record. Carrizo will also be filing a Request to Supplement the Clerk’s Record. Carrizo respectfully submits that it would be beneficial to the Court and counsel to have a complete and accurate appellate record to cite in Carrizo’s opening brief before that brief is filed. This extension is not sought for the purposes of delay. One prior extension has been granted for this deadline. As set forth in the Certificate of Conference below, this motion for extension of time is Unopposed. For these reasons, Appellant requests that the Unopposed Second Motion for Extension of Time be extended 30 days to November 23, 2015. 2 Respectfully submitted, /s/ Marcy Hogan Greer Marcy Hogan Greer State Bar No. 08417650 mgreer@adjtlaw.com ALEXANDER DUBOSE JEFFERSON & TOWNSEND LLP 515 Congress Avenue, Suite 2350 Austin, Texas 78701-3562 Telephone: (512) 482-9300 Facsimile: (512) 482-9303 John M.
