Other: _____________________________________
The motion to substitute counsel is granted, but construed as a notice of appearance,
and the Clerk of this Court is directed to note Bryan Laine’s appearance as lead
counsel for appellant. See TEX. R. APP. P. 6.2, 6.5(d). However, if counsel Christine
Brown-Zeto requests withdrawal, she must file a motion that complies with Rule
6.5(d). Appellant’s motion for a 45-day extension of time to file a supplemental brief
is granted until August 24, 2015, but no further extensions will be granted given the
length of time requested. See id. at 38.7. Appellee’s brief, if any, will be due within
30 days of the filing of the supplemental brief. See id. at 38.6(b).
