Petitioner State Farm Lloyds and Cross-Petitioner Dennis Webb file this Joint Motion for Extension of Time to file replies to the responses to the Petitions for Review filed by the parties pursuant to Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 10.5(b), and respectfully states as follows: This is the first request for an extension of time to file replies to the
petitions for review in this case.
2. The current deadline for State Farm Lloyds to file its motion is January 4, 2018.
3. The current deadline for Webb to file his motion is also January 4, 2018. The parties have agreed to request an extension of the deadline to file their motions until and including Monday, February 5, 2018.

The relief sought by this motion is so that justice may be done, and is not sought solely for delay or any other improper purpose.
