HOTTLE Clerk IN RE ESTATE OF JACK HIROMI IKENAGA, SR., DECEASED ON APPEAL FROM THE PROBATE COURT NO. 1, BEXAR COUNTY, TEXAS CAUSE NO. 2011PC4330 SECOND MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE APPELLEES’ BRIEF TO THE HONORABLE FOURTH COURT OF APPEALS: Appellees Jack Ikenaga, Jr., William D. Bailey, Temporary Administrator or the Estate of Jack Ikenaga Jr., Nancy Sumners, Christine Ikenaga, Patrick Gasiorowski, and Eric J. Goodman respectfully present this second motion to extend time in which to file their Appellees’ Brief pursuant to Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 38.6. One previous motion for extension of time to file the Appellees’ Brief has been filed. In support of this motion, Appellees would show the Court as follows: I. Appellees’ Brief is currently due on September 8, 2015. Appellees intend to file a single brief, and that brief will be drafted principally by the undersigned. Because of the events and matters described more fully below, Appellees request an extension of an additional 15 days in which to file their Appellees’ Brief or until September 23, 2015. II. The requested extension is necessary because the following matters and issues have prevented the undersigned from completing the Appellees’ Brief and will preclude the undersigned from doing so sooner than September 23, 2015: 1. The clerk’s record in this appeal contains numerous errors and omissions and additional time has been expended to determine what items need to be included in a supplemental/corrected clerk’s record; 2. The undersigned filed the Appellants’ Brief in Dennis Rayner and Joe Tex Xpress, Inc. v. Krista Dillon, No. 06-15-00009-CV on August 17, 2015; 3. The undersigned completed documents necessary to perfect an appeal to this Court from Robertson Electric, Inc. v. Select Building Systems, Inc. et al., No. 13-212, in the 216th District Court, Kendall County, Texas; 4. The undersigned filed a response to petitioners’ motion for rehearing in City of Houston and Daniel W. Krueger, in His Official Capacity as Director of Public Works & Engineering v. Little Nell Apartments, LP et al., No 14-0473, in the Texas Supreme Court on August 12, 2015; 5. This Court issued an opinion in Hindes v. La Salle County, Texas, No. 04-14-00651-CV on August 26, 2015, and the undersigned needs time to determine whether a motion for rehearing or motion for rehearing en banc should be filed; 2 6. The undersigned has a pre-planned vacation scheduled and will be out of state from September 4, 2015 through September 7, 2015; and 7. The undersigned’s child has been ill, which required the undersigned to be out of the office for several days. For all of the reasons explained above, counsel for Appellees cannot complete the Appellees’ Brief by its current due date of September 8, 2015, and needs an additional 15 days in which to do so. III. The undersigned has attempted to confer with David McLane, appellate counsel for appellant, via email and by telephone to determine whether this motion would be opposed. The undersigned has yet to hear from Mr. McLane as to whether the motion will be opposed. . WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, Appellees respectfully request that this Court grant their motion for extension of time in which to file their Appellees’ Brief, extend the deadline in which to file the brief an additional 15 days up to and including September 23, 2015, and grant such other and further relief to which Appellees may be justly and equitably entitled. 3 Respectfully submitted, /s/ Samuel V.
