This is an appeal from the Trial Court’s order granting traditional and no-evidence summary judgment for Appellees on Appellant’s claims against them and on Deutsche Bank’s counterclaim against Appellant. 2. Appellant filed his Notice of Appeal on or about January 6, 2015. 3. Appellant’s brief was originally due on March 20, 2015, and after receiving an unopposed thirty day extension of time, Appellant filed his brief on April 20, 2015. 4. Appellees’ briefs are currently due on May 21, 2015. Appellees seek an extension of time until June 22, 2015, within which to file and serve their briefs and record excerpts. 5. The requested extension is not sought for purposes of delay only, but so that justice may be served in this action. Specifically, Appellees’ respective counsel requests an extension of time to file their briefs due to the fact that the undersigned counsel has overlapping deadlines that has prevented their full attention to this case by the current response deadline. 6. As a result, Appellees’ respective counsel will not have sufficient time to complete preparation of Appellees’ briefs by May 21, 2015. Accordingly, Appellees request an extension of time of until June 22, 2015, to file their briefs in order that Appellees will have an adequate time to prepare their briefs. APPELLEES’ UNOPPOSED JOINT MOTION PAGE 2 OF 4 FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE BRIEFS   7. This is Appellees first request for an extension of time to file their briefs. No further requests for extension of time are anticipated. Prayer Appellees, Southwest Funding, L.P., IndyMac Mortgage Services, OneWest Bank, FSB, and Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, respectfully request that the Court grant an extension of time until June 22, 2015, within which Appellees must file and serve their respective briefs and record excerpts in this appeal.
