Terry Randall v. Herbert J. Walker D/B/A Walker Water Well And Walker Water Well Services, LLC

ACCEPTED 03-15-00317-CV 7907203 THIRD COURT OF APPEALS AUSTIN, TEXAS 11/19/2015 1:54:06 PM JEFFREY D. KYLE CLERK NO. 03-15-00317-CV TERRY RANDALL § IN THE THIRD DISTRICT Appellant, § FILED IN 3rd COURT OF APPEALS § AUSTIN, TEXAS V. § COURT OF APPEALS 11/19/2015 1:54:06 PM § JEFFREY D. KYLE HERBERT J WALKER dba § Clerk WALKER WATER WELL; and § WALKER WATER WELL § SERVICES, LLC § Appellee. § AUSTIN, TEXAS APPELLEE’S MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE BRIEF Appellee Herbert Walker files this Motion for Extension of Time to File Brief pursuant to TEX. R. APP. P. 38.6(d) and would respectfully show: Appellant filed his brief on September 29, 2015, making Appellee’s brief due on October 29, 2015. However, Appellant mistakenly failed to perfect service of his brief on Appellee. Appellee first obtained a copy of Appellant’s brief on November 18, 2015, after receiving a notice from the Clerk that Appellee’s brief was past due. Appellee is requesting an extension of 50 days of the original deadline, which would make Appellee’s brief due on December 18, 2015. Such an extension would allow Appellee 30 days from the date he actually received Appellant’s brief in which to file, as contemplated by TEX. R. APP. P. 38.6(b). No previous extension has been granted regarding Appellee’s brief. This extension of time is not sought for the purposes of delay, but so that justice may be done.
