MAURICE JOHNSON AND E&M ENTERPRISES, INC.,
Appellees Appealed from the 215 th Judicial District Court Harris County, Texas APPELLEES’MOTION TO EXTEND TIME TO FILE APPELLEES’S BRIEF
Grealish & McZeal, PC ATTORNEYS FOR APPELLEESES, Maurice Johnson & E&M Enterprises, Inc.
TO THE HONORABLE FIRST COURT OF APPEALS:
Appellees respectfully requests this Court to extend the time in which to file Appellees’
Brief. NACE International, is the Appellant. Maurice Johnson & E&M Enterprises, Inc. are the
Appellees. Appellees’ Brief is due August 3, 2015. However, Appellees seek a 20 day extension
to file brief under the authority of T.R.A.P. 10.5(b).
The Court may extend time to file Appellees’ Brief under the authority of Texas Rules of
Appellate Procedure 10.5(b). This is Appellees’ first request for extension. Appellees seek an
extension of time to file Appellees’ Brief because the lead briefing attorney recently finished
closing a large corporate acquisition and there was not sufficient time to adequately, effectively
and diligently prepare Appellees’ Brief before the August 3, 2015 brief due date.
This is Appellees’ first request for an extension of time and Appellant, NACE
International by and through its attorney was unavailable to determine if it was opposed.
For the foregoing reasons, Appellees, Maurice Johnson & E&M Enterprises, Inc., request
this Court grant an extension of time in which to file his brief to on or about, August 24, 2015.
