On Appeal from the
506th Judicial District Court, Waller County

UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME
TO FILE REPLY BRIEF

To the Honorable Fifteenth Court of Appeals:

Appellants Maria Margarita Rojas, et al., move to extend the time to

file appellant’s reply brief pursuant to Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure
10.5(b) and 38.6(d).
I.
Appellants filed their brief in this case on May 12, 2025, and Appellee’s
brief was filed on June 30, 2025. Appellants’ Reply Brief was originally due
on July 21, 2025. The Court granted Appellants an extension of the due date
to August 29, 2025. Appellants now request an extension of the due date to
September 5, 2025. This is Appellants’ second request for an extension on
this brief, and Appellee does not oppose the extension.
II.
This extension is not sought for delay but to accommodate the schedule
of Appellants’ counsel and to provide adequate time to provide a thorough
brief to the Court to address the issues raised in Appellee’s brief. Counsel for
Appellants sought their first extension in order to accommodate counsel’s
other case commitments and out-of-state travel, necessitating the extension.
However, it is now clear that another short extension of one week is
necessary to fully address the issues raised in Appellee’s brief.

PRAYER
Therefore, Appellants respectfully request that the Court grant an
extension of time for filing its brief until September 5, 2025.
Respectfully submitted,
