                    On Appeal from the 7th Judicial District Court
                                Smith County, Texas
                               Cause No. 12-2565-A


      APPELLANT’S UNOPPOSED FIRST MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME
                     TO FILE APPELLANT’S BRIEF

      Appellant Carrizo Oil & Gas, Inc. (“Carrizo”) respectfully files this

Unopposed First Motion for Extension of Time to File Appellant’s Brief. The

current deadline for filing Appellant’s Brief is September 23, 2015. Appellant

requests a 30-day extension of time for a new deadline of October 23, 2015.

      The reasons for this request are as follows:

      1.    The reporter’s record in this case was filed on August 24, 2015, and it

contains 36 volumes of transcripts and exhibits from a two-week jury trial. Counsel
needs additional time to review this voluminous record to prepare the opening brief

for Carrizo.

      2.       In addition, the undersigned has several other briefing deadlines and

hearings that impact her ability to prepare the brief in this case, including an

accelerated, class-action appeal in Texas Law Shield LLP, et al. v. Crowley, No.

14-15-00705-CV, in the Fourteenth Court of Appeals at Houston, Texas, where the

appellants’ opening brief will be due September 22, 2015.

      3.       Counsel also will be attending and presenting argument at a discovery

hearing and a status conference in a multi-district litigation, styled In re New

England Compounding Pharmacy, Inc. Products Liability Litigation, MDL No.

13-2419, in the United States District Court District of Massachusetts. Both hearings

will be in Boston on September 9, 2015.

      This extension is not sought for the purposes of delay. No prior extension has

been granted for this deadline.

      As set forth in the Certificate of Conference below, this motion for extension

of time is Unopposed.

      For these reasons, Appellant requests that the Unopposed First Motion for

Extension of Time be extended 30 days to October 23, 2015.
