__________________________________________________________________

On Appeal from the 215th Judicial District Court

of Harris County, Texas, Cause No. 2010-71771

APPELLANT’S UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO

FILE APPELLANT’S BRIEF

__________________________________________________________________

Appellant EWB-I, LLC files this Motion for Extension of Time to File

Appellant’s Brief. Appellant’s Brief is currently due on December 3, 2015.

Appellant seeks an extension of time to and including January 15, 2016 in which to

file Appellant’s Brief. This is Appellant’s first request for an extension, and it is

unopposed.

The clerk’s record was not filed in this case until November 3, 2015, and the

record is voluminous. Before and since that time, Appellant’s lead appellate

counsel, Justin Waggoner, was required to devote substantially all of his time to

trial preparation in a case styled Cause No. 2013-52205; DDAB Interests, Inc. et al.

v. Dresser-Rand Company, Dresser-Rand Group, Inc. , in the 189th Judicial

District Court of Harris County, Texas, which settled on the eve of its

November 16, 2015 trial setting. Mr. Waggoner’s trial preparation efforts have

resulted in the deferral of work on other matters that will require a substantial

amount of Mr. Waggoner’s attention over the coming weeks. In light of

Mr. Waggoner’s conflicting engagements since the time period for preparation and

filing of Appellant’s briefing began to run, as well as the approach of the holidays,

Appellant requests that its deadline to file Appellant’s Brief be extended to

January 15, 2016. This extension is not sought for delay only but so that justice

may be done.

For the foregoing reasons, Appellant requests that the Court extend its

deadline to file Appellant’s Brief to January 15, 2016.

Respectfully submitted,
