TO THE THIRD COURT OF APPEALS:

Appellee, Cox Texas Newspapers, L.P. d/b/a Austin American-

under Rules 10.1, 10.5(b), and 38.6(d) of the Texas Rule of Appellate

of this motion appellee shows:

I.

This is an appeal from the grant of a motion for summary judgment

on a suit to collect on a note. Appellant’s Brief was filed on December 15,

2014.

This is appellee’s first request for an extension of time to file

Appellee’s Brief.

III.

preparing Appellee’s Brief, was busy preparing the brief in No. 03-14-
