November 6, 2015.

2. This is Petitioner’s first request for an extension of time in this case.

3. Petitioner relies on the following facts as a reasonable explanation for the requested

extension of time. Petitioner’s counsel, in addition to preparing a brief on the merits in

this case must also devote time to the following additional matters: Petitioner’s counsel

has a case set for trial on 10-5-15 and will be unable to complete the Petition for Review

by this date. Furthermore, Appellant has not obtained the court reporters records and is

unable to support his position without the records

no opposition to this request.
