APPELLEE’S/CROSS-APPELLANT’S BRIEF

Appellee/Cross-Appellant Ellen Chesloff files this Unopposed

Fourth Motion asking for a four-day extension, to June 5, 2015 , to file her

Appellee’s/Cross-Appellant’s Brief in this case.

I. BACKGROUND Appellants appeal the April 25, 2014 Final Judgment entered against

them in the underlying case. Appellee noticed a cross-appeal of that Final

Judgment as well. The Clerk’s Record was filed on June 23, 2014 and the

Reporter’s Record was filed on November 25, 2014.

Appellants filed their brief on January 29, 2015. Appellee’s/Cross-

Appellant’s brief is currently due, on third extension, no later than June 1,

2015.

II. REQUESTED EXTENSION This is Appellee’s/Cross-Appellant’s third request for an extension.

The following matters have prevented the undersigned from devoting

sufficient time to prepare that brief.

1. The undersigned is lead counsel and responsible for preparing

a reply brief in Hardriders Motorcycle Club Association, et al. v.

Hardriders, Inc., No. 14-14-00234-CV, in the Fourteenth Court of

Appeals. That reply brief was filed on May 18, 2015.

2. The undersigned is lead counsel and responsible for presenting

oral argument in Wanda Young, et al. v. Pulte Homes of Texas, LP,

et al., No. 02-14-00224-CV, in the Second Court of Appeals. The

court of appeals heard oral argument in this case on May 19,

2015.

3. The undersigned is lead counsel and responsible for preparing

the Appellees’ Brief in Starwood Management, LLC, by and

through Norma Gonzalez v. Don Swaim and Rose Walker, LLP, No.

05-14-01218-CV, in the Fifth Court of Appeals. That brief was

filed yesterday, May 27, 2015.

These and other day-to-day matters have and will prevent the undersigned

from finishing the Appellee’s/Cross-Appellant’s brief in this case by the

current deadline. This request is sought not solely for delay, but in order

that the Appellee’s/Cross-Appellant’s Brief and the issues to be presented

therein may be clearly and concisely presented to this Court and so that

justice may be served.

III. CERTIFICATE OF CONFERENCE On May 28, 2015, the undersigned contacted counsel for Appellants,

Barham Lewis and Angela Prince, regarding the substance of this Motion.

Ms. Prince graciously advised that they and their clients were unopposed

to the relief being requested.

IV. PRAYER For these reasons, Appellee/Cross-Appellant respectfully requests

that this Court grant her unopposed motion and extend the time to file her

Appellee’s/Cross-Appellant’s Brief to June 5, 2015 .
