APPELLANTS' UNOPPOSED MOTION TO EXTEND TIME TO FILE REPLY BRIEF PAGE 1
A.
INTRODUCTION
1. Appellants are Oak Mortgage Group, Inc., Michael H. Nasserfar,
Michael E. Task and Ty R. Gosnay. Appellee is Ameripro Funding, Inc..
2. There is no specific deadline to file this Motion to extend time. See, Tex.
R. App 38.6(d).
3. This motion is unopposed.
B.
ARGUMENT & AUTHORITIES
4. The Court of Appeals has the authority under Texas Rule of Appellate
Procedure 38.6 (d) to extend the time to file a brief.
5. Appellee's Brief was filed on October 7, 2015 and then re-filed on
October 16, 2015.
5. Appellants' Reply Brief is due 20 days after Appellee's Brief is file,
TRAP 38.6(c), which is on either October 27 or November 5, 2015.
6. Appellants' request additional days to file Appellants' Reply Brief
extending the time, if necessary, until November 2, 2015.
7. No previous extension has been granted to extend the time to file
Appellants' Reply Brief.
APPELLANTS' UNOPPOSED MOTION TO EXTEND TIME TO FILE REPLY BRIEF PAGE 2
8. Appellants need additional time to file Appellants' Reply Brief
because Appellants' counsel, Wm Charles Bundren, Esq., completed a trial on
October 29, 2015 and, additionally, Mr. Bundren is a member of the Board of
Directors of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas Bar
Association and served as a moderator and board member at the United States
District Court for the Eastern District of Texas Bar Association Bench/Bar
Conference which occurred between October 21, to October 23, 2015. As a result
of these conflicts, the Reply Brief could not be completed earlier.
9. The facts that are included in this Motion are within the personal
knowledge of the attorney signing this Motion and are certified to be true and
accurate.
C.
CONCLUSION
Due to these facts, a short extension of time to file Appellants' Reply Brief is
not unreasonable, and the request for the extension is unopposed by Appellee. An
extension to complete Appellants' Reply Brief will not unreasonably delay the
prosecution of this action.
D.
PRAYER
APPELLANTS' UNOPPOSED MOTION TO EXTEND TIME TO FILE REPLY BRIEF PAGE 3

Respectfully submitted,
By: /s/ Charles Bundren
