The trial court in this case entered judgment on November 10, 2014. This is the first motion for extension of time filed in this appeal. Appellants’ Brief is currently due on June 1, 2015. The Appellants have paid for the Clerk’s Record and that record was filed on April 24, 2015. The Appellants have been struggling to come up with funding to pay for the Reporter’s Record. On May 27, 2015, Appellants sent a check to the Court Reporter for the full amount due, $1,639.00. Appellants wish to proceed with this appeal after the filing of the Reporter’s Record. Appellants request an extension of time to July 1, 2015 to file the Appellants’ Brief. Appellants are hopeful that the Reporter’s Record will be completed and filed in time to allow the record to be reviewed and to permit the drafting of the brief by the time. This motion is filed not for delay but so that justice can be done. 2 Respectfully submitted, /s/ Tracy J. Willi Tracy J.
