TO THE HONORABLE JUSTICES OF SAID COURT:
COMES NOW, ROBERT SMITH, Appellee herein, and files this Request
for Oral Argument and would show unto this Honorable Court as follows:
I.
Appellee’s deadline for filing its Appellee Brief was February 11, 2015.
Appellee filed its brief within the deadline set by this Honorable Court. Although,
Appellee requested Oral Argument in the Statement Regarding Oral Argument in
his brief, the cover of the brief failed to denote Appellee’s request for oral
argument to be granted. On February 13, 2015, Appellee was notified by the Clerk
of the Court and was directed to file a second document stating that oral argument
was requested.
Appellee respectfully requests that this Honorable Court grant his request for
oral argument in the present matter for the reasons stated in Appellee’s Statement
Regarding Oral Argument in Appellee’s Brief.
PRAYER
FOR THESE REASONS, Appellee respectfully requests that this Honorable
Court grant Appellee’s request for oral argument regarding the merits of
Appellant’s Brief.
