          MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE
                 CROSS-APPELLEES’ BRIEF


TO THE HONORABLE COURT OF APPEALS:

         Appellants/Cross-Appellees Lakeway Regional Medical Center, LLC and

Surgical Development Partners, LLC (“Movants”) file this first unopposed motion

for an extension of time to file their Cross-Appellees’ Brief in this appeal.

Currently, Movants’ Appellees’ Brief is due on October 21, 2015.             Movants

respectfully request that this Court extend the time for filing their Cross-Appellees’




54189289.1                                1
Brief by 30 days to Friday, November 20, 2015. This is the first request for an

extension of time by Movants for the filing of their Cross-Appellees’ Brief.

         The reason for this extension request is that Appellee/Cross-Appellant Lake

Travis Transitional LTCH, LLC n/k/a/ Lake Travis Specialty Hospital, LLC

(“LTT”) has asked for a 30-day extension of time to file its Appellee’s Brief. The

parties have cooperated with one another to maintain a parallel briefing schedule.

Further, Movants need additional time to respond to LTT’s Cross-Appellant’s

Brief.

         This motion is unopposed.

         WHEREFORE, Appellants/Cross-Appellees Lakeway Regional Medical

Center, LLC and Surgical Development Partners, LLC respectfully request that

this Court grant this motion, extend the deadline to file their Cross-Appellees’

Brief to November 20, 2015, and grant to them all other relief to which they may

be entitled.
