Appellant,

HALEY BROWN,
Appellee.

UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME
TO FILE APPELLANT’S BRIEF

TO THE HONORABLE COURT OF APPEALS:

Appellant, the Texas Department of Transportation, presents this Motion

pursuant to Rules 10.5(b) and 38.6(d) of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure and

respectfully moves the court for an extension of time to file Appellant’s Brief. As

grounds for this Motion, Appellant would respectfully show the Court the following:

1. Appellant’s Brief is due to be filed on November 16, 2015.

2. Appellant requests an extension of time to file its Brief until Wednesday,

December 16, 2015, which is 30 days after the current due date of November 16,

2015.

3. This is Appellant’s first request for extension of time to file its Brief.
4. Appellant needs an extension of time to file its Brief because time constraints

on State’s counsel have made it impracticable to complete the State’s Brief by

November 16, 2015. Since October 26, 2017, State’s counsel, in addition to routine

duties, has had to make substantial time commitments to the following:

a. Assisting in a four day trial in State v. Speedway Grapevine I, LLC, a Texas

Limited Liability Company, No. 2014-000122-1 in the County Court at Law No. 1,

of Tarrant County, Texas;

b. Preparation for a trial in State v. Beltline/Airport Freeway, Ltd., et al., No.

CC-13-02551D in County Court at Law No. 4 of Dallas County, Texas set on

December 8, 2015; and

c. Preparing discovery and experts designations in State v. Talcorp II, L.P., No.

PR-2014-00877 in the Probate Court of Denton County, Texas.

For these reasons, Appellant respectfully requests that the Court grant an

extension for filing Appellant’s Brief until Wednesday, December 16, 2015.

Respectfully submitted,
