                       SUBMISSION ON ORAL ARGUMENT


TO THE HONORABLE JUSTICES OF THE FIRST COURT OF APPEALS:

       Come now, SSC Opportunity Partners, LLC and Douglas Britton

(“Appellees”) and files this Motion to Reschedule Submission on Oral Argument.

In support of this Motion, Appellees show the Court the following:




Motion to Reschedule Submission on Oral Argument                                    Page 1
                                        I.
                               ORAL ARGUMENT DATE

       This case is set for oral argument on Tuesday, April 14, 2015, at 1:30 p.m.

No previous extension to reschedule has been sought by Appellees. One extension

has been sought by Appellants. Appellees respectfully request the oral argument

be rescheduled for a later date at the Court’s discretion.

                               II.
             REASONS FOR RESCHEDULING ORAL ARGUMENT

       Appellees’ counsel, David Keltner, recently had knee surgery on Friday,

April 3, 2015. As planned, the surgery would not have interfered with the oral

argument setting; however, due to complications during his recovery, his doctor

has advised Mr. Keltner not to travel to the oral argument. [See Exhibit A;

Doctor’s Note, dated April 8, 2015].

                           III.
   APPELLANTS CANNOT BE REACHED REGARDING THIS MOTION

       Counsel for Appellants Bandier Realty Partners, LLC and Switchback

Ventures, LLC, David Gunn, cannot be reached to discuss this motion. Therefore,

Appellees present this motion for the Court’s consideration.

       WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, Appellees request the April

14, 2015 oral argument be rescheduled at a later date at the Court’s discretion.

                                             Respectfully submitted,
