the Appellants’ Reply Brief under the authority of TEX. R. APP. P. 38.6(d), 10.1,

and 10.5(b)(1) and (3).

1. Appellants’ Reply Brief is due on October 26, 2015. Appellants’

counsel is requesting a 10-day extension to file Appellants’ Reply Brief to

November 4, 2015. In accordance with Rule 10.5(b)(1)(c), the following facts

reasonably explain the need for further time. Appellate Counsel for the Appellants

are involved in other time-sensitive appellate matters, including the following:

a. Appellants’ Counsel is under a pleadings deadline of October 22, 2015 in

BASF Corporation et. al. v. CB&I Contractors, Inc. FKA et. al.; in the

23rd Judicial District Court of Parish of Ascension, State of Louisiana,

Docket No. 00111524B, to revise pleadings in a complex construction

contract dispute; and

b. Appellants’ Counsel is providing legal services on a daily basis in

support of the Early Voting Supervisors, Presiding Judges, Ballot Board

010725.000005\4829-4447-7737.v1
and Signature Verification Board in Harris County during early voting

and on Election Day for the November 3rd General Election.

Based on these facts, Appellants respectfully request an extension of time of 10

days to file their Reply Brief. With the extension, the Appellants’ Reply Brief

would be filed on or before November 4, 2015.

2. No previous extensions have been sought or granted regarding the

filing of the Appellants’ Reply Brief.

3. Appellants apologize to the court for any delay or inconvenience the

necessity for an extension may cause.

4. This motion is agreed to by all parties. This request is not sought for

delay, but in order that justice may be done.

PRAYER
WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, Appellants, joined by the

Appellees, ask this Honorable Court to grant an extension of 10 days, until

November 4, 2015 to file the Appellants’ Reply Brief, and to grant the same

extension to the Appellees to file the Appellees’ Reply Brief; and ask that all other

briefing periods remain unchanged. Appellants and Appellees also pray for any

other relief to which they may be entitled.
