APPELLANTS’ RESPONSE TO APPELLEE’S MOTION TO DISMISS

To the Honorable Justices of the First Court of Appeals: Appellants, Penn Virginia Oil & Gas GP, LLC and Penn Virginia Oil & Gas, L.P. (collectively “Penn Virginia”) file this Response to Appellee Alfredo De La Garza’s Motion to Dismiss. In support thereof, Penn Virginia would respectfully show this Honorable Court as follows: 1. In his Motion at paragraphs 5 and 6, Appellee argues that Penn Virginia’s appeal should be dismissed because Penn Virginia filed its Notice of Appeal outside of the 20 day deadline to do so under Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 28.1, and that Penn Virginia failed to “reasonably explain the need for an extension” in its Motion for Extension of Time to File Notice of Appeal. (See Penn Virginia’s Motion for Extension of Time to File, attached as Exhibit A, and Penn Virginia’s Reply to Appellees’ Objection, attached as Exhibit B.)

2. Rather than reiterate all of the arguments made and facts asserted in Penn Virginia’s underlying Motion for Extension of Time to File and Penn Virginia’s Reply to Appellees’ Objection to same, Penn Virginia would simply direct this Court to those Motions and the affidavits submitted in support of same, all of which are attached to this Response as Exhibits A and B, and which are on file with this Court. Penn Virginia would show further that this Court has not denied Penn Virginia’s Motion for Extension, therefore, there has been no judicial determination that the Court lacks jurisdiction as a result of the date of filing. That is to say, if this Court grants Penn Virginia’s Motion for Extension to File, then Penn Virginia’s Notice of Appeal filed on October 13, 2015 will be considered timely filed and there will be no question as to jurisdiction.

CONCLUSION & PRAYER In light of the foregoing, Appellants, Penn Virginia Oil & Gas GP, LLC and Penn Virginia Oil & Gas, L.P. pray that this Court deny Appellee’s Motion to Dismiss. Penn Virginia further prays for such other and further relief, both special and general, at law and in equity, to which it may be justly entitled.

FIRST COURT OF APPEALS HOUSTON, TEXAS

PENN VIRGINIA OIL & GAS GP, L.L.C. & PENN VIRGINIA OIL AND GAS L.P., Appellants.

On Appeal from the 215TH Judicial District Court, Harris County, Texas Cause No. 2014-42519

MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE NOTICE OF APPEAL

To the Honorable Justices of the First Court of Appeals: Appellants, Penn Virginia Oil & Gas GP, LLC and Penn Virginia Oil & Gas, L.P. (collectively “Penn Virginia”) file this Motion for Extension of Time to File

EXHIBIT "A" Notice of Appeal pursuant to Rules 26.3 and 10.5(b)(2). In support thereof, Penn Virginia would respectfully show this Honorable Court as follows: I. FACTUAL SUMMARY 1. This appeal arises out of a September 11, 2015 Order denying Appellant’s Motion to Compel Arbitration and to Abate, which was filed in the 215th Judicial District Court of Harris County, Texas.1 The underlying litigation, which is currently set for trial on May 31, 2016, involves an April 29, 2014 oilfield incident near Shiner, Texas, in which two employees of Nabors Completion & Productions Services Co. (“NCPS”) were injured when an improperly constructed high pressure flow line parted and caused the sudden release of pressurized gas.

The two employees (now, Appellees) were standing near the flow line when the line separated. NCPS was a well site contractor that had been hired by Penn Virginia, the operator, to perform workover operations. Both Appellees were members of the NCPS day crew.

2. Nabors Industries, Inc. (“Nabors”) and its subsidiaries, one of which is NCPS, have a valid arbitration program (known as the Nabors Dispute Resolution Program or “DRP”) which requires that disputes involving injuries to employees that are incurred during the course and scope of employment be

See Exhibit “A,” Order Denying Motion to Compel Arbitration. submitted to final and binding arbitration. Appellees acknowledged and accepted the terms of the DRP as a condition of their employment with NCPS.

3. The DRP applies to all direct and indirect subsidiaries of Nabors, all current and former employees of the aforementioned subsidiaries, and any “Electing Entity” that has agreed to be bound by the terms of the agreement. Penn Virginia is an “Electing Entity” and agreed on more than one occasion to be bound by the terms of the DRP, first in a 2008 drilling contract and later in a 2010 drilling contract. In Penn Virginia’s Motion to Compel Arbitration and Abate, Penn Virginia argued that Appellee’s individual claims fall within the scope of the DRP, as both were employees of NCPS at the time of the incident and both allege that their injuries occurred while in the course and scope of their employment.2 Because Penn Virginia is an Electing Entity to the Nabors DRP, Appellees’ claims against Penn Virginia fall within the scope of the arbitration provisions set forth in the DRP.

4. On June 18, 2015, Penn Virginia filed its Motion to Compel Arbitration and Abate. The matter was set for hearing on July 31, 2015 but was reset for September 11, 2015 after counsel for Appellee’s made requests for various depositions and additional discovery relating to the arbitration agreement.

See “Exhibit B,” Motion to Compel Arbitration.

Following the hearing and on September 11, 2015, the trial court issued an Order denying Penn Virginia’s Motion to Compel Arbitration.

5. On October 1, 2015, Penn Virginia filed a Motion for Reconsideration of the Court’s Order, and with it attached an Affidavit from Mr. Ernest Nelson, Vice President of Contracts for Nabors, to address a latent ambiguity raised by the Court during the hearing. The trial court heard the Motion for Reconsideration on October 12, 2015, and denied the Reconsideration on that same day.

II. ARGUMENTS & AUTHORITIES 6. Penn Virginia now moves this Court of Appeals for an extension of time to file its Notice of Appeal in light of the Motion for Reconsideration that was presented to the Court and denied on October 12, 2015.3 7. Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 26.3 states that “the appellate court may extend the time to file the notice of appeal if, within 15 days after the deadline for filing the notice of appeal, the party: “(a) files in the trial court the notice of appeal; and (b) files in the appellate court a motion complying with Rule 10.5(b).”4 Rule 10.5(b)(2) provides the pleading requirements for a motion to extend time to file a Notice of Appeal. Under Rule 10.5(b)(2), appellant must See “Exhibit C,” Motion for Reconsideration and “Exhibit D,” Order Denying Motion for Reconsideration.

See Exhibit “E,” a File Stamped Copy of Penn Virginia’s Notice of Appeal, which was filed with the trial court on October 13, 2015. provide the deadline for filing “the item in question;” (in this case, the Notice of Appeal); “the facts relied on to reasonably explain the need for an extension;” identification of the trial court, “the date of the trial court’s judgment or appealable order, and the case number and style of the case in trial court.”

8. In this instance, Penn Virginia’s deadline to file the Notice of Appeal would have been twenty days from September 11, 2015, pursuant to Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 28.1. Twenty days from September 11, 2015 was October 1, 2015. If this Motion is granted, the extended deadline will fall on October 16, 2015. There have been no other requests for extension of time to file this Notice of Appeal. The trial court’s judgment or appealable order was entered on September 11, 2015, and the case number and style of the case in the trial court is as follows: Cause No. 2014-42519, Alfredo De La Garza, Individually and as Next Friend for xxxxxx xx xx xxxxx and xxxxxxxx xx xx xxxxx, minors v. Penn Virginia Oil & Gas, L.P., Penn Virginia Oil & Gas GP, L.L.C., Mike Ferguson, Trifecta Oilfield Services, L.L.C., Cudd Pressure Control, Inc., Roywell Services, Inc., and Oaks Personnel Services, Inc. d/b/a The Oaks Group.5 9. The facts relied on to explain the need for an extension include the following: It is relevant to note that Appellees non-suited all defendants but for Penn Virginia and the Penn Virginia Company Man, Mike Ferguson. - At the September 11, 2015 hearing, the Court noted that it would deny the Motion to Compel Arbitration and to Abate because the contracts entered into between Penn Virginia and Nabors in which Penn Virginia became an Electing Entity to the Nabors DRP contemplated application to “past and present” employees. The trial court reasoned that because neither of the Appellees were past or present employees of NCPS at the time the contracts were entered into, Penn Virginia’s status as an Electing Entity did not apply to the dispute between Appellees and Penn Virginia, and therefore the DRP did not apply. - On October 1, 2015, Penn Virginia filed a Motion for Reconsideration in which it presented the Affidavit of Ernest Nelson who, as set forth above, is the Vice President of Contracts for Nabors. Mr. Nelson entered into one of the contracts with Penn Virginia on behalf of Nabors and has personal knowledge as to the intent of Nabors when it prepared the agreements. - In the Motion for Reconsideration, Penn Virginia argues that the language providing that “Penn Virginia is an Electing Entity as to all disputes with ‘present and former employees and applicants of Nabors,’” must be read to mean that Penn Virginia is an Electing Entity “as to all disputes involving present and former employees at the time the dispute arises,” and not at the time the contract was entered into. In other words, “Penn Virginia’s status as an Electing Entity is not limited to present and former employees as of 2008 or 2010” (the time the underlying contracts were entered into) but instead “applies as to all persons who are present Nabors employees or former Nabors employees at the time of the dispute.” - In this case, the dispute arose between Penn Virginia and Appellees on April 29, 2014, at which time both injured parties were NCPS employees.

Because Penn Virginia became an Electing Entity to the Nabors Dispute Resolution Program in 2008 and again in 2010, the DRP applies as to the dispute between Penn Virginia and Appellees. - Counsel for Penn Virginia mistakenly believed that the deadline to file its Notice of Appeal from the Order denying the Motion to Compel Arbitration was thirty days from September 11, 2015. Counsel determined after the actual deadline had passed that the appealable Order was an accelerated appeal and that Penn Virginia in fact had twenty days from the date of the September 11, 2015 Order. Penn Virginia now files its Notice of Appeal and this Motion to Extend the Deadline to file its Notice of Appeal by fifteen days from October 1, 2015.

10. The failure to file a Notice of Appeal on October 1, 2015 was not deliberate or done in attempt to circumvent the Texas Rules. Counsel for Penn Virginia had a good faith belief that the deadline to file its Notice of Appeal of the Order denying the Motion to Compel Arbitration fell thirty days from the date of the September 11, 2015 Order, pursuant to Rule 26.1. Thus, counsel believed that the deadline to file was October 12, 2015 (as October 11, 2015 fell on a Sunday).

In light of counsel’s erroneous understanding of the deadline, it was Penn Virginia’s belief that it could file the Motion for Reconsideration, proceed to oral argument on the morning of October 12, 2015, and immediately and timely file the Notice of Appeal from the original September 11, 2015 judgment if the Court then denied the Motion for Reconsideration.

11. In actuality, an appeal from an Order denying a Motion to Compel Arbitration is, pursuant to Rule 28.1(a), an accelerated appeal, which permits only twenty days to file the Notice of Appeal. Following counsel’s research as to available remedies, Penn Virginia has made all available and good faith efforts to seek an extension under Rule 10.5(b)(2) to file its Notice of Appeal.

12. Before counsel became aware of the actual and correct deadline, counsel believed it was in Penn Virginia’s best interest to allow the trial court to consider the Affidavit of Ernest Nelson and evaluate the Motion for Reconsideration before the Notice of Appeal was filed. Counsel further believed (in error) that the “thirty day deadline” would permit the trial court to review the Motion for Reconsideration and evaluate the Affidavit presented prior to divesting the trial court of its jurisdiction. Given the trial court’s expression of concern at the September 11, 2015 hearing as to the “ambiguity” set forth above, Penn Virginia believed that the Motion for Reconsideration might resolve the issues the trial court took with the Motion to Compel Arbitration and that, if not, the Notice of Appeal could be timely filed immediately following the October 12 hearing.

13. Penn Virginia should be permitted to pursue its appeal and would request that this Court of Appeals exercise its discretionary authority to allow Penn Virginia to file its Notice of Appeal within fifteen days after the October 1, 2015 deadline. As this Court is no doubt aware, there is a strong presumption in Texas favoring arbitration. See Circuit City Stores, Inc. v. Adams, 121 S. Ct. 1302 (2001); Cantella & Co. v. Goodwin, 924 S.W.2d 943 (Tex. 1996); Jack B. Anglin v. Tipps, 842 S.W.2d 266, 268 (Tex. 1992). If a valid arbitration agreement exists, and the claims are within the agreement’s scope, a trial court has no discretion and must compel arbitration. Cantella, 924 S.W.2d at 944; Shearson Lehman Bros., Inc. v. Kilgore, 871 S.W.2d 925, 928 (Tex. App.—Corpus Christi, 1994, orig. proceeding).

14. Penn Virginia did not deliberately, strategically, or intentionally delay in filing its Notice of Appeal in an effort to subvert the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure or engage in any gamesmanship with the trial court. Instead, counsel for Penn Virginia mistakenly believed the deadline to file its Notice of Appeal fell on October 12, 2015 rather than October 1, 2015. Penn Virginia believed that, with the thirty-day deadline, it would have the opportunity to address the trial court’s specific concerns as to a particular and nuanced ambiguity in the contracts between Penn Virginia and Nabors. Penn Virginia should not be penalized for the errors made by its counsel and would request the opportunity to litigate the issues set forth in its Motion to Compel Arbitration, particularly the application of the arbitration provisions set forth in the Nabors DRP.

PRAYER Accordingly, Appellants, Penn Virginia Oil & Gas GP, LLC and Penn Virginia Oil & Gas, L.P. pray that this Court grant this Motion to Extend the Deadline to File a Notice of Appeal and permit Penn Virginia to present to this Court its arguments and authorities in support of arbitration. Penn Virginia further prays for such other and further relief, both special and general, at law and in equity, to which it may be justly entitled.

In support thereof, Penn Virginia would show as follows: I.INTRODUCTION l. Plaintiff, Alfredo "Freddie" De La Garza ("Plaintiff' or "De La Garza"), Individually and as Next Friend of and , and Intervenor, John Paul "J.P." Adame ("Adame"), Individually and as Next Friend of , (collectively "the parties") filed personal injury claims against Penn Virginia on Jruly 24, 2014 and, November 6, 2014, respectively. Their claims arise out of an April 29,2014 incident, which occurred at a well site

EXHIBIT "B'' located near Shiner, Texas while De La Garua and Adame were working in the course and scope of their employment with Nabors Completion & Production Co. ("NCPS").

2. Nabors Industries, Inc. ("Nabors") and its subsidiaries, one of which is NCPS, have a valid arbitration agreement which requires that disputes involving injuries to employees that are incurred during the course and scope of employment be submitted to final and binding arbitration. De La Garza and Adame both acknowledged and accepted the terms of the arbitration agreement.

representatives of their minor children. The minors' claims are also subject to the arbitration agreement as they are derivative of De La Garza and Adame's claims. Consequently, De La Garza and Adame's individual claims against Penn Virginia and the claims filed on behalf of their minor children all fall within the scope of the arbitration agreement.

4. Therefore, Penn Virginia's Motion to Compel Arbitration should be granted, and this case should be abated or dismissed and compelled to final and binding arbitration.

I See Nabors Dispute Resolution Program ("DRP'), a true and correct copy of which is attached as Exhibit l-4.

See 2008 Penn Virginia Oil & Gas, LP IADC Contract, a true and correct copy of which is attached as Exhibit 1- B; see also Contractors Special Proyisions, a true and correct copy of which is attached as Exhibit 1-C, at I 16 "Operator, its parent, subsidiary and affiliated corporations, as well as the employees, officers and directors ofeach (collectively, "Operator") is cognizant of the Nabors Dispute Resolution Program and wishes to become an Electing Entity, as defined in that Program."

II.I.INDISPUTED FACTS 5. Nabors is the "Sponsor" of the Nabors Dispute Resolution Program (ooDRP"), as

that term is defined by the DRP.3 6. The DRP is subject to the Federal Arbitration Act ("FA"{").4 7. By its terms, the Nabors DRP is designed to provide a means for the resolution of disputes between the "Company" and the Company's present and former employees that are related to or that arise out of a current or former employment relationship with the Company.s 8. The DRP is intended to create an exclusive procedural mechanism for the final resolution of all disputes falling within its terms.6 Consequently, the DRP requires that all disputes between De La Garza, Adame and the Company are subject to binding arbitration.T 9. The DRP defines "Dispute" to include personal injuries that are incurred at the worþlace or in the course and scope of employment.s 10. The DRP defines "Company" as "Sponsor and every direct and indirect subsidiary...ofSponsor,@',,9Aspreviouslymentioned,Naborsisthe

App.-Fort Worth 1997) (holding that FAA preempted Texas Arbitratìon Act's requirement that party's attorney sign agreement). Although the FAA preempts state arbitration laws, courts still must resort to general state law contract principles to determine whether an arbitration agreement will be enforced.

Adame's job duties also involved activities associated with rigging- up and rigging-down workover rigs, pulling levers or turning handles to extend hydraulic or screw-type jacks to support and level the rig, laying steel production rods, tubing, and casing, and other tasks necessary to support operations.23 Adame's job duties and responsibilities did not include the movement of goods in interstate commerce.2a While employed by NCPS, Adame was never employed as a commercial truck driver or transportation worker.25 15.

On July 24, 2014, De La Garza filed his Original Petition, and on September 8, 2014 and October l, 2014, De La Garza filed his First and Second Amended Petitions.30 Likewise, on November 6, 2014 and February 19, 2015, Adame filed his Original and First Amended Petitions in Intervention.3l A copy of all pleadings are maintained in the Court's records. De La Garza and Adame allege that on April 29, 2014 and while working for NCPS, they were injured when a piece of NCPS line pipe parted, causing both to be thrown back as a result ofthe released pressurized gas.32 III. SUMMARY OF'THE ARGUMENT 17. The Company (defined to include Nabors, its subsidiaries, and any "Electing Entity") has a valid arbitration agreement, which both De La Garza and Adame acknowledged and accepted. Because Penn Virginia is an "Electing Entity," the parties' claims against Penn Virginia fall within the scope of the arbitration agreement. Consequently, the parties' claims must be submitted to final and binding arbitration in accordance with the DRP. Therefore, Penn Virginia's Motion to Compel Arbitration should be granted and this case should be abated.

IV. ARGUMENT & AUTHORITIES 18. Pursuant to the DRP, the parties' lawsuit must be submitted to binding arbitration.

It is undisputed that Texas courts recognize that arbitration agreements in an "at-will" employment setting apply to personal injury claims. In fact, there is a strong presumption in Texas favoring arbitration. See Circuit City Stores, Inc. v. Adams, 121 S. Ct. 1302 (2001); Id. 2e Id. Plaintiffls Original Petition, First Amended Petition, and Second Amended Petition.

3rAdame's Original Petition in Intervention and First Amended Petition in Intervention.

32SeePlaintifls Original Petition and First Amended Petition, as well as Adame's Original Petition in Intervention and First Amended Petition in Intervention.

Cantella & Co. v. Goodwin, 924 S.W.2d,943 (Tex. 1996); Jack B. Anglin v. Tipps,842 S.W.2d 266, 268 (Tex. 1992). If a valid arbitration agreement exists, and the claims are within the agreement's scope, atrial cout has no discretion and must compel arbitration. Cantella,924 S.V/.2d at 944; Shearson Lehman Bros., Inc. v. Kilgore, 871 S.V/.2d 925,928 (Tex. App.- Corpus Christi, 1994, orig. proceeding).

19. The clear language of the DRP states that the Federal Arbitration Act,9 U.S.C. $

1, et. seq. ("FAJA.") controls.33 The Texas Supreme Court has held that in cases where the FAA is stated in the agreement as the controlling law, the FAA prevails. EZ Pawn Corp. v. Mancias, 934 S.W.2d 87,91 (Tex. 1996). In adjudicating a motion to compel arbitration under the FAA, courts generally try to determine whether the parties agreed to arbitrate the dispute in question.

Mitsubishi Motors Corp. v. Soler Chrysler-Plymouth, Inc., 473 U.S. 614, 626 (1985); Folse v.

Richard Wolf Medical Instruments Corp., 56 F.3d 603, 605 (5th Cir. 1995); R.M. Perez & Assocs., Inc. v. Welch, 960F.2d 534, 538 (5th Cir. 1992).

20. Under the FAA, the court applies ordinary state contract law principles in order to decide whether a valid arbitration agreement exists. See In re D. Wilson Constr. Co., 196 S.V/.3d 774,781 (Tex. 2006) (citing First Options of Chicago, Inc. v. Kaplan, 514 U.S. 938, 944 (1995)); 9 U.S.C.A. $ 1 et seq.; Crv. Pnec. & R¡v. Coon $ 171.001 et seq. Once a valid arbitration agreement is established, a presumption attaches favoring arbitration. Dallas Cardiologt Assoc., P.A. v. Mallick,978 S.V/.2d 209,212 (Tex. App.-Dallas, 1998, pet. denied).

Then Court must then determine whether the arbitration agreement covers the non-movant's claims. In re Jim Walter Homes, lnc.,207 S.W.3d 888 (Tex. App.-Houston [14th Dist.] 2006).

In doing so, a court must focus on the complaint's factual allegations rather than the legal causes of action asserted. Id. S¿¿ Exhibit l-A at !f fl 2(C) and 8 21. Thus, two questions guide the determination of whether Penn Virginia's Motion to Compel should be granted: 1) is there a valid agreement to arbitrate; and2) does the dispute in question fall within the scope of the agreement? Associated Glass, Ltd. v. Eye Ten Oaks Invs., Ltd., 147 S.W.3d 507,511 (Tex. App.-San Antonio 2004,no pet.).

A. Valid Agreement to Arbitrate 22. An "at-will" employee who receives notice of an employer's arbitration policy and continues or commences employment accepts the terms of the agreement as a matter of law.

See In re Halliburton, S0 S.W.3d 566 (Tex. 2002); In re Dallas Peterbilt, Ltd., L.L.P., 1.96 S.\M.3d 761, 162 (Tex. 2006). In Halliburton, the employer created a dispute resolution program which obligated both employees and the employer to arbitrate all disputes between them. See

Halliburton, 80 S.W.3d at 566. The Texas Supreme Court held that the employer was justified in giving notice to all employees of the program and informing them that by continuing to work after the adoption of the program, employees would be considered to have accepted the program.

See id at 569-71.

23. Four years later, the San Antonio Court of Appeals extended Halliburton even further. Relying on Halliburton, the Fourth Court of Appeals compelled arbitration where the employee expressly refused to sign an arbitration agreement but continued to work after receivingnoticeofthearbit¡ationrequirement. InrefuRGT,Inc.,2006WL622736 (Tex.App.- San Antonio 2006, orig. proceeding).

24. It should also be noted that the San Antonio Court of Appeals has specifically considered the Nabors DRP and held that it is valid and enforceable on multiple occasions. See NDUSA USA, LP v. Pena, 385 S.V/.3d 103 (Tex. App.-San Antonio 2012, pet. denied); NDUSA USA, LP v. Carpenter, 198 S.V/.3d 240,249 (Tex. App.-San Antonio 2006, orig. proceeding). Furthermore, in October 2013 and, then again in December 2013, the Texas Supreme Court denied the family of a deceased Nabors' employee's petition for review when the family sought to reverse the Fourth Court of Appeals' determination that the DRP was valid and enforceable. See Pena,385 S.ïi/.3d 103 25. De La Garza and Adame executed documents on several occasions that clearly express both parties' agreement to the terms of the DRP.3a The documents specifically state that De La Garza and Adame acknowledged receiving, reviewing, understanding, and accepting the DRP's requirement to submit disputes to arbitration.3s De LaGarza and Adame's signatures on the aforementioned documents is strong evidence of their actual acknowledgment and agreement that they are required to adhere to the DRP. See In re Bunzl USA,l55 S.W.3d 202 (Tex. App.- El Paso 2004, orig. proceeding).

26. De La Garza and Adame accepted the terms of the DRP as a matter of law.

Therefore, a valid and enforceable agreement to arbitrate was formed. In re Pqlm Harbor Homes, Inc.,l95 S.V/.3d 672,676 (Tex. 2006).

B. The Dispute Falls Within the Scope of the Aereement 21. The parties' claims fall within the scope of the DRP. The DRP requires that disputes between the Company (defined as Nabors, its subsidiaries, and any "Electing Entity") and its current or former employees be submitted to arbitration. According to the parties' Petitions, De La Gana and Adame were both employees of a Nabors' subsidiary (NCPS) and both were allegedly injured while in the course and scope of their employment. Consequently, this dispute, which is between NCPS employees and Penn Virginia (an "Electing Entity"), falls within the scope of the agreement.

Nichols on Aff. at I I 12, 13, I 6, and 17 ; see also Exhibits -F - 1-I.

28. Whether a claim falls within the scope of an arbitration agreement depends on the factual allegations of the complaint rather than the legal causes of action asserted. Prudential Secs., Inc. v. Marshall,909 S.V/.2d 896, 899 (Tex. 1995); Ikon Of/ìce Solutions, Inc. v. Eifert,2 S.W.3d 688, 697 (Tex. App.-Houston [14th Dist.] 1999, orig. proceeding); Prudentiøl-Bache Secs., Inc. v. Garza, 848 S.V/.2d 803, 807 (Tex. App.-Corpus Christi 1993). Based on the factual allegations contained in the parlies' pleadings, the parties' claims fall squarely within the scope of the DRP.

29. It is undisputed that De La Garza and Adame were employed by NCPS, which is a Nabors subsidiary.36 It is undisputed that La Garza and Adame both alleged that they were injured at the worþlace and/or in the course and scope of their employment.3T 30. De La Garza and Adame signed an acknowledgement that specifically states, "I have received a copy of the Nabors Dispute Resolution Program...and understand that I am required to adhere to the Dispute Resolution Program and its requirement for submission of disputes to...arbitration."38 All of these terms are clearly defined in the DRP.

31. The DRP clearly and unequivocally states that it "applies to and binds the Company, each Employee and Applicant."3e The DRP defines "Dispute" to include any personal injury that is incurred at the worþlace or in the course and scope of employment.aO According to the DRP, "Company" means "Sponsor and every direct and indirect subsidiary...of Sponsor, (and) any Electing Entity."al

See ar ,See Exhibit l-A at 2(D). !f 32. Nabors is the "sponsor" of the DRP.a2 NCPS is a subsidiary of Nabors.a3 Penn Virginia is an "Electing Entity" and agreed that it is bound by the terms of the DRP.44 Therefore, Penn Virginia falls within the scope of the "Company." 33. The parties' claims clearly fall within the scope of the arbitration agreement.

Consequently, Penn Virginia's Motion to Compel Arbitration should be granted and this case should be abated or dismissed and compelled to final and binding arbitration.

V. CONCLUSION 34. Nabors has instituted a comprehensive dispute resolution program, which requires arbitration of disputes between the Company (which is defined as Nabors Industries, Inc., its subsidiaries, and any "Electing Entity") and current or former employees. De La Garza and Adame unequivocally agreed to adhere to the DRP and its requirement to submit all claims to arbitration. The DRP applies to personal injuries that occur at the workplace or while the employee is in the course and scope of his employment. Therefore, the parties' claims, as

asserted in this lawsuit, are subject to the terms of the DRP. Consequently, Penn Virginia's Motion to Compel Arbitration should be granted and this case should be abated or dismissed and compelled to final and binding arbitration.

PRAYER For the foregoing reasons, PENN VIRGINIA OIL & GAS, L.P. and PENN VIRGINIA OIL & GAS GP, LLC request that the Court grant this Motion, abate or dismiss this action, and order that the claims asserted by Alfredo De La Garza,Individually and as Next Friend of a, and Intervenor, John Paul Adame, Individually and as Next Friend of be

2. As set forth in the Motion, Nabors Industries, Inc. ("Nabors") and its subsidiaries, one of which is Plaintiff and Intervenor's former employer NCPS, have a valid arbitration agreement which requires that disputes involving injuries to employees that are incurred during the course and scope of employment be submitted to final and binding arbitration. The t S¿¿ Exhibit A, Penn Virginia's Motion to Compel Arbihation and to Abate, and Exhibit B, Court's Order Denying Penn Virginia's Motion to Compel Arbitration and to Abate.

EXHIBIT "C" arbitration agreement applies to all direct and indirect subsidiaries of Nabors, all current and former employees of the aforementioned subsidiaries, and any "Electing Entity" that has agreed to be bound by the terms of the agreement.2 Per the language found in the 2008 Penn Virginia Oil & Gas LP IADC Contract and the 2010 Penn Virginia MC Energy, LLC IADC Contract (the "Contracts"), Penn Virginia has agreed on more than one occasion to be bound by the terms of the arbitration agreement and to become an "Electing Entity."3 Thus, the claims asserted by Plaintiff and Intervenor against Penn Virginia are subject to arbitration, as set forth in the Nabors Dispute Resolution Program.

3. For the reasons set forth in the Motion, Penn Virginia's Joint Reply to Plaintiff and Intervenor's Response to the Motion, and Penn Virginia's separate Reply to Intervenor's Response, Penn Virginia respectfully requests that the Court reconsider the pleadings, the evidence set forth therein, and the arguments made by Penn Virginia.

4. To the extent that the basis for the Court's denial was certain language contained in the Contracts, which provides that Penn Virginia is an Electing Entity as to all disputes with "present and former employees and applicants of Nabors," Penn Virginia would show that it is an Electing Entity as to all disputes involving present and former employees at the time the dispute arises, and not necessarily at the time the contract was entered into.a That is, Penn Virginia's status as an Electing Entity is not limited to present and former employees as of 2008 or 2010.5 Instead, Penn Virginia is an Electing Entity to the Nabors Dispute Resolution Program Nabors Dispute Resolution Program ("DRP"), a true and conect copy of which is attached as Exhibit C.

See See 2008 Penn Virginia Oil & Gas, LP IADC Contract, a true and correct copy of which is attached as Exhibit D; see also Contractors Special Provisions, a true and correct copy of which is attached as Exhibit lD-1, at ![ 16 "Operator, its parent, subsidiary and affiliated corporations, as well as the employees, officers and di¡ectors ofeach (collectively, "Operator") is cognizant of the Nabors Dispute Resolution Program and wishes to become an Electing Entity, as defined in that Program." See also 2010 Penn Virginia MC Energ¡¡ LLC IADC Contract, a true and correct copy ofwhich is attached as Exhibit E; see also Contractors Special Provisions, a true and correct copy of which is attached as Exhibit E- 1, at fl I 6. a,S¿e Exhibit D-l and E-1, both at tf 16. such that arbitration applies as to all persons who are present Nabors employees or former Nabors employees at the time of the dispute.6 In support of its position, Penn Virginia provides the affidavit of Mr. Ernie Nelson, Vice President of Contracts for Nabors, who executed the 2010 Contract on behalf of Nabors.

PRAYER For the foregoing reasons, Penn Virginia would urge this Court to reconsider its order denying Penn Virginia's Motion to Compel Arbitration and to Abate. Should this Court grant Penn Virginia's Motion for Reconsideration, Penn Virginia would urge the Court to reverse its decision and issue an order granting Penn Virginia's to Compel Arbitration and to Abate.T Penn Virginia also requests all other and further relief, both special and general, at law and in equity, to which it may be justly entitled.

DEFENDANTS, PENN VIRGINIA OIL & GAS, L.P. AND PENN VIRGINIA OIL & GAS GP. LLC'S MOTION TO COMPEL ARBITRATION AND TO ABATE Defendants, Penn Virginia Oil & Gas, L.P. and Penn Virginia Oil & Gas GP, LLC (collectively referred to hereinafter as "Penn Virginia" unless individual reference is necessary) file this Motion to Compel Arbitration and to Abate pending such arbitration. In support thereof, Penn Virginia would show as follows: I.INTRODUCTION 1. Plaintiff, Alfredo "Freddie" De La Garza ("Plaintiff'or "De La Garza"), Individually and as Next Friend of , and

Intervenor, John Paul "J.P." Adame ("Adame"), Individually and as Next Friend of , (collectively "the parties") filed personal injury claims against Penn Virginia on July 24, 2014 and Novembet 6, 2014, respectively. Their claims arise out of an April 29,2014 incident, which occurred at a well site

EXHIBIT "A'' located near Shiner, Texas while De La Garza and Adame were working in the course and scope of their employment with Nabors Completion & Production Co. ("NCPS").

3. The arbitration agreement applies to all direct and indirect subsidiaries of Nabors, all current and former employees of the aforementioned subsidiaries, and any "Electing Entity" that has agreed to be bound by the terms of the agreement.r Penn Virginia is an "Electing Entity" and has agreed on more than one occasion to be bound by the terms of the agreement.z De La Garza's and Adame's individual claims fall within the scope of the arbitration agreement as both were employees of NCPS at the time of the incident and allege that their injuries occurred while in the course and scope of their employment. De La Garza and Adame also filed claims as representatives of their minor children. The minors' claims are also subject to the arbitration agreement as they are derivative of De La Garza and Adame's claims. Consequently, De La Garza and Adame's individual claims against Penn Virginia and the claims filed on behalf of their minor children all fall within the scope of the arbitration agreement.

4. Therefore, Penn Virginia's Motion to Compel Arbitration should be granted, and this case should be abated or dismissed and compelled to final and binding arbitration.

II. I]NDISPUTED FACTS 5. Nabors is the "Sponsor" of the Nabors Dispute Resolution Program ("DRP"), as

that term is defined by the DRP.3 6. The DRP is subject to the Federal Arbitration Act ("FAA").4 7. By its terms, the Nabors DRP is designed to provide a means for the resolution of disputes between the "Company" and the Company's present and former employees that are related to or that arise out of a current or former employment relationship with the Company.s 8. The DRP is intended to create an exclusive procedural mechanism for the final resolution of all disputes falling within its terms.6 Consequently, the DRP requires that all disputes between De La Garza, Adame and the Company are subject to binding arbitration.T 9. The DRP defines "Dispute" to include personal injuries that arc incurred at the worþlace or in the course and scope of employment.s 10.

"Sponsor" of the DRP. NCPS, De La Garza and Adame's employer at the time of the workplace incident, is a subsidiary of Nabors.r0 The DRP extends to and includes employees ofNCPS.rr 11. Further, Penn Virginia is an "Electing Entity" and agreed to be bound by the terms of the DRP in two IADC Contracts between it and Nabors.l2 As an "Electing Entity," Penn Virginia is required to resolve disputes with any past or present employee(s) or applicants of Nabors in accordance with the DRP.I3 12. On January 2, 2013, Adame executed a document entitled "Application For Hourly And Daily Employment," as well as another document entitled "Notice to Applicants Regarding Dispute Resolution Program."l4 Likewise, on July 16,2013, De La Garza executed the "Application For Hourly And Daily Employment" and the "Notice to Applicants Regarding Dispute Resolution Program."l5 De La Garza and Adame, by their signatures, acknowledged and agreed that they would be "required to adhere to the Dispute Resolution Program and its requirement for submission of all claims to...arbitration."16 13. On January 7,2013, Adame also executed a document entitled "Employee Acknowledgement Concerning Nabors Dispute Resolution Program."17 The document specifically states, "I have received a copy of the Nabors Dispute Resolution Progtam."l8 De La Garza executed the same document on J:uly 22, 2013.1e De La Garza and Adame, by their

On April 29,2003, Adame was hired by Nabors V/ell Services, Ltd. as a crew worker.2l On January 7,2013, as a result of a business reorganization, he became a crew worker for NCPS when Nabors Well Services, Ltd. liquidated into Nabors Well Services, Co., which liquidated and dissolved into NCPS .22 As a crew worker, Adame's job duties and responsibilities included the operation of hand and power tools to perform maintenance and repairs to oil or gas wells and related equipment. Adame's job duties also involved activities associated with rigging- up and rigging-down workover rigs, pulling levers or tuming handles to extend hydraulic or screw-type jacks to support and level the rig, laying steel production rods, tubing, and casing, and other tasks necessary to support operations.23 Adame's job duties and responsibilities did not include the movement of goods in interstate commerce.2a While employed by NCPS, Adame was never employed as a commercial truck driver or transportation worker.25 15. On July 22,2013, De La Garzawas hired by NCPS as a crew worker.26 As a crew worker, De La Garza'sjob duties and responsibilities included the operation of hand and power tools to perform maintenance and repairs to oil or gas wells and related equipment.

De La Garza and Adame allege that on April 29,2014 and while working for NCPS, they were injured when a piece of NCPS line pipe parted, causing both to be thrown back as a result ofthe released pressurized gas.32

III. SUMMARY OF THE ARGUMENT 17. The Company (defined to include Nabors, its subsidiaries, and any "Electing Entity") has a valid arbitration agreement, which both De La Gana and Adame acknowledged and accepted. Because Penn Virginia is an "Electing Entity," the parties' claims against Penn Virginia fall within the scope of the arbitration agreement. Consequently, the parties' claims must be submitted to final and binding arbitration in accordance with the DRP. Therefore, Penn Virginia's Motion to Compel Arbitration should be granted and this case should be abated.

IV. ARGUMENT & AUTHORITIES 18. Pursuant to the DRP, the parties' lawsuit must be submitted to binding arbitration.

It is undisputed that Texas courts recognize that arbitration agreements in an "at-will" employment setting apply to personal injury claims. In fact, there is a strong presumption in Texas favoring arbitration. See Circuit City Stores, Inc. v. Adams, l2l S. Ct. 1302 (2001); Id. 2e Id. 30 s Original Petition, First Amended Petition, and Second Amended Petition.

Plaintiff 3rAdame's Original Petition in Intervention and First Amended Petition in Intervention.

32 SeePlaintifls Original Petition and First Amended Petition, as well as Adame's Original Petition in Intervention and First Amended Petition in Intervention.

Cantella & Co. v. Goodwin,924 S.W.2d 943 (Tex. 1996); Jack B. Anglin v. Tipps,842 S.V/.2d 266, 268 (Tex. 1992). If a valid arbitration agreement exists, and the claims are within the agreement's scope, atrial court has no discretion and must compel arbitration. Cantella,924 S.W.2d at 944; Shearson Lehman Bros., Inc. v. Kilgore, 871 S.W.2d 925, 928 (Tex. App.- Corpus Christi, 1994, orig. proceeding).

19. The clear language of the DRP states that the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. $

1, et. seq. ("FAA") controls.33 The Texas Supreme Court has held that in cases where the FAA is stated in the agreement as the controlling law, the FAA prevails. EZ Pawn Corp. v. Mancias, S.V/.2d 87,91 (Tex. 1996). In adjudicating a motion to compel arbitration under the FAA, courts generally try to determine whether the parties agreed to arbitrate the dispute in question.

Mitsubishi Motors Corp. v. Soler Chrysler-Plymouth, Inc., 473 U.S. 614, 626 (1985); Folse v.

Richard Wolf Medical Instruments Corp., 56 F.3d 603, 605 (5th Cir. 1995); R.M. Perez & Assocs., Inc. v. IIlelch, 960F.2d,534, 538 (5th Cir. 1992).

20. Under the FAA, the court applies ordinary state contract law principles in order to decide whether a valid arbitration agreement exists. See In re D. ll'ilson Constr. Co., 196 S.W.3d 774, 781 (Tex. 2006) (citing First Options of Chicago, Inc. v. Kaplan, 514 U.S. 938, 944 (1995)); 9 U.S.C.A. $ I et seq.; Ctv. Pnec. & REn¿. Cone $ 171.001 et seq. Once a valid arbitration agreement is established, a presumption attaches favoring arbitration. Dallas Cardiology Assoc., P.A. v. Mallick,978 S.W.2d 209,212 (Tex. App.-Dallas, 1998, pet. denied).

Then Court must then determine whether the arbitration agreement covers the non-movant's claims. In re Jim Walter Homes, lnc.,207 S.W.3d 888 (Tex. App.-Houston [14th Dist.] 2006).

In doing so, a court must focus on the complaint's factual allegations rather than the legal causes of action asserted. Id. .S¿e Exhibit 1-A at fl !f 2(C) and 8.

21. Thus, two questions guide the determination of whether Penn Virginia's Motion to Compel should be granted: 1) is there a valid agreement to arbitrate; and 2) does the dispute in question fall within the scope of the agreement? Associated Glass, Ltd. v. Eye Ten Oaks Invs., Ltd., 147 S.W.3d 507,511 (Tex. App.-San Antonio 2004, no pet.).

A. Valid Aereement to Arbitrate 22. An "at-will" employee who receives notice of an employer's arbitration policy and continues or commences employment accepts the terms of the agreement as a matter of law.

See In re Halliburton, 80 S.V/.3d 566 (Tex. 2002); In re Dallqs Peterbilt, Ltd., L.L.P., 196 S.W.3d 16l, 162 (Tex. 2006) . In Halliburton, the employer created a dispute resolution program which obligated both employees and the employer to arbitrate all disputes between them. See Halliburton, 80 S.V/.3d at 566. The Texas Supreme Court held that the employer was justified in giving notice to all employees of the program and informing them that by continuing to work after the adoption of the program, employees would be considered to have accepted the program.

See id at569-71.

23. Four years later, the San Antonio Court of Appeals extended Halliburton even further. Relying on Halliburton, lhe Fourth Court of Appeals compelled arbitration where the employee expressly refused to sign an arbitration agreement but continued to work after receiving notice of the arbitration requirement. In re &RGT, Inc.,2006WL 622736 (Tex. App.- San Antonio 2006, orig. proceeding).

24. It should also be noted that the San Antonio Court of Appeals has specifically considered the Nabors DRP and held that it is valid and enforceable on multiple occasions. S¿e NDUSA USA, LP v. Pena,385 S.W.3d 103 (Tex. App.-San Antonio 2012, pet. denied); NDUSA USA, LP v. Carpenter, 198 S.V/.3d 240,249 (Tex. App.-San Antonio 2006, orig. proceeding). Furthermore, in October 2013 and, then again in December 2013, the Texas Supreme Court denied the family of a deceased Nabors' employee's petition for review when the family sought to reverse the Fourth Court of Appeals' determination that the DRP was valid and enforceable. See Pena,385 S.W.3d 103 25. De La Garza and Adame executed documents on several occasions that clearly express both parties' agreement to the terms of the DRP.3a The documents specifically state that De La Gana and Adame acknowledged receiving, reviewing, understanding, and accepting the DRP's requirement to submit disputes to arbitration.3s De La Garza and Adame's signatures on the aforementioned documents is strong evidence of their actual acknowledgment and agreement that they are required to adhere to the DRP. See In re Bunzl USA, 155 S.V/.3d 202 (Tex. App.- El Paso 2004, orig. proceeding).

26. De La Garza and Adame accepted the terms of the DRP as a maller of law.

Therefore, a valid and enforceable agreement to arbitrate was formed. In re Palm Harbor Homes, Inc., 195 S.W.3d 672,676 (Tex. 2006).

B. The Disnute Falls Within the Scope of the Asreement 27. The parties' claims fall within the scope of the DRP. The DRP requires that disputes between the Company (defined as Nabors, its subsidiaries, and any "Electing Entity") and its current or former employees be submitted to arbitration. According to the parties' Petitions, De La Garza and Adame were both employees of a Nabors' subsidiary (NCPS) and both were allegedly injured while in the course and scope of their employment. Consequently, this dispute, which is between NCPS employees and Penn Virginia (an "Electing Entity"), falls within the scope of the agreement.

3a See Nicholson Aff, atfl\ 12,73,16, and l7; see also Exhibits 1-F - l-I.

3s NicholsonAff. at!ffl 12, 13, 16, and l7;see also Exhibits l-F - 1-I.

28. Whether a claim falls within the scope of an arbitration agreement depends on the factual allegations of the complaint rather than the legal causes of action asserled. Prudential Secs., Inc. v. Marshall, 909 S.W.2d 896, 899 (Tex. 1995) ; Ikon Office Solutions, Inc. v. Eifert, 2 S.W.3d 688,697 (Tex. App.-Houston !4th Dist.l 1999, orig. proceeding); Prudential-Bache Secs., Inc. v. Garza,848 S.V/.2d 803, 807 (Tex. App.-Cotpus Christi 1993). Based on the factual allegations contained in the parties' pleadings, the parties' claims fall squarely within the scope of the DRP.

31. The DRP clearly and unequivocally states that it "applies to and binds the Company, each Employee and Applicant."3e The DRP defines "Dispute" to include any personal injury that is incurred at the worþlace or in the course and scope of employment.a0 According to the DRP, "Company" means "Sponsor and every direct and indirect subsidiary...of Sponsor, (and) any Electing Entity."+t

Nabors is the "Sponsor" of the DRP.a2 NCPS is a subsidiary of Nabors.a3 Penn Virginia is an "Electing Entify" and agreed that it is bound by the terms of the DRP.44 Therefore, Penn Virginia falls within the scope of the "Company." 33. The parties' claims clearly fall within the scope of the arbitration agreement.

Consequently, Penn Virginia's Motion to Compel Arbitration should be granted and this case should be abated or dismissed and compelled to final and binding arbitration.

V. CONCLUSION 34. Nabors has instituted a comprehensive dispute resolution program, which requires arbitration of disputes between the Company (which is defined as Nabors Industries, Inc., its subsidiaries, and any "Electing Entity") and current or former employees. De La Garza and Adame unequivocally agreed to adhere to the DRP and its requirement to submit all claims to arbitration. The DRP applies to personal injuries that occur at the worþlace or while the employee is in the course and scope of his employment. Therefore, the parties' claims, as asserted in this lawsuit, are subject to the terms of the DRP. Consequently, Penn Virginia's Motion to Compel Arbitration should be granted and this case should be abated or dismissed and compelled to final and binding arbitration.

PRAYER For the foregoing reasons, PENN VIRGINIA OIL & GAS, L.P. and PENN VIRGINIA OIL & GAS GP, LLC request that the Court grant this Motion, abate or dismiss this action, and order that the claims asserted by Alfredo De La Garza,Individually and as Next Friend of I , and Intervenor, John Paul Adame, Individually and as Next Friend of , be Nicholson Aff. atl4; see also Exhibit 1-4, at fl 2(L).

FIRST COURT OF APPEALS HOUSTON, TEXAS

PENN VIRGINIA OIL & GAS GP, L.L.C. & PENN VIRGINIA OIL AND GAS L.P., Appellants.

On Appeal from the 215TH Judicial District Court, Harris County, Texas Cause No. 2014-42519

APPELLANTS’ REPLY TO APPELLEES’ RESPONSES TO MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE NOTICE OF APPEAL

To the Honorable Justices of the First Court of Appeals: Appellants, Penn Virginia Oil & Gas GP, LLC and Penn Virginia Oil & Gas, L.P. (collectively “Penn Virginia”) file this Reply to Appellees’ Responses to Penn Virginia’s Motion for Extension of Time to File Notice of Appeal pursuant to

EXHIBIT "B" Rules 26.3 and 10.5(b)(2). In support thereof, Penn Virginia would respectfully show this Honorable Court as follows: I. The facts set forth in Penn Virginia’s Motion for Extension reasonably explain its need for an extension.

1. In Appellees’ Responses to Penn Virginia’s Motion for Extension, Appellees refer to two Notices of Appeal, one of which was filed in 2010 by Mr. Thomas J. Smith, the other of which was filed in 2011 by the same three attorneys listed on the present matter. The 2010 filing was dismissed for want of jurisdiction because it was untimely filed while the 2011 Notice of Appeal was filed timely.

2. Counsel would show that these examples provide further evidence that the failure to timely file in this instance was exactly as counsel described in the Motion for Extension: a mistake. Mr. Kelly Hartmann and Ms. Alexis Hester have not appeared as counsel on a Notice of Appeal since the 2011 filing and have not had occasion to familiarize themselves with the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure or work with the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure since that time.

Four years later, counsel cannot attest with any certainty that the 2011 Notice of Appeal was filed with objective awareness of the twenty day deadline, or that the Notice of Appeal was timely filed simply by chance.

3. While the 2011 filing noted that the appeal was an Accelerated Appeal, counsel failed to refresh their memories and review Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 28.1(a) when the Order denying Penn Virginia’s Motion to Compel Arbitration was issued on September 11, 2015. In error and due to a lack of familiarity with the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure, counsel believed Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 26.1 applied.

4. The “credible facts” explaining the need for the extension are, painfully, quite simple: counsel committed an oversight and believed that the deadline was thirty days and not twenty days. Counsel committed an unfortunate human error while practicing in an area of law and dealing with a set of procedures that are otherwise foreign to it. Counsel was focused on preparing its Motion for Reconsideration during that period and was making all efforts to address the latent ambiguities identified by the Court with regard to the contracts between Penn Virginia and Nabors, as they related to the Nabors Dispute Resolution Agreement.

As a result and unknowingly, Counsel filed the Motion for Reconsideration on the very deadline to file the Notice of Appeal.

5. With regard to Appellees’ argument at paragraph 11 that “[Penn Virginia’s] counsel failed to file the notice of appeal even within the thirty days they aver they believed was the deadline,” counsel would show that it did not realize the error until after the actual, twenty day deadline had passed. As soon as counsel discovered that the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure allowed for a fifteen day extension, counsel filed Penn Virginia’s Notice of Appeal and the Motion for Extension followed soon thereafter. The Notice of Appeal, which was filed only one day after what counsel had originally believed was a thirty day deadline, was filed as soon as practicable upon realizing that an extension was possible. Penn Virginia would show that, fortunately, the fifteen days had not expired by the time the Notice of Appeal was filed.1 6. Moreover, Texas Courts have held that such error and mistake is sufficient basis for granting an extension of time. In particular, the Texas Supreme Court has stated that “‘any plausible statement of circumstances indicating that failure to file ... was not deliberate or intentional, but was the result of inadvertence, mistake, or mischance” is a reasonable explanation, “even though counsel or his secretary may appear to have been lacking in that degree of diligence which careful practitioners normally exercise.’” Dimotsis v. Lloyds, 966 S.W.2d 657, 657 (Tex. App.—San Antonio, 1998) (quoting Garcia v. Kastner Farms, Inc., 774 S.W.2d 668, 670 (Tex. 1989) (emphasis added)). “In other words, this standard “encompasses the negligence of counsel as a reasonable explanation.”

Dimotsis, 966 S.W.2d at 657.

7. In Dimotsis v. Lloyds, a 1998 case out of the San Antonio Court of Appeals, the attorney seeking the deadline filed a verified statement in which he explained that he “erroneously calculated the perfection deadline by adding thirty The deadline for Penn Virginia to file its Notice of Appeal fell on October 1, 2015, which was twenty days after the September 11, 2015 Order denying the Motion to Compel Arbitration was issued. Fifteen days from October 1, 2015 was October 16, 2015. Penn Virginia filed its Notice of Appeal on October 13, 2015 and filed its Motion to Extend on October 14, 2015. days to the date the trial court overruled [Appellant’s] motion for new trial.” Id. at 657-58. The Court held that Appellant’s late filing “was not intentional or deliberate, but was due to her attorney's misunderstanding of the law” and held that “the explanation offered is a reasonable one.” Id. at 658.

8. The Houston First Court of Appeals has accepted similar explanations as reasonable and has granted an extension when a party’s attorney miscalculated the deadline to perfect an appeal, but that such error was the result of human error and a mistake. Hernandez v. Lopez, 288 S.W.3d 180, 184 (Tex. App.—Houston [1st Dist.] 2009, no pet.) (“Because George has also filed a factual explanation indicating that he, in good faith, believed that he filed on time and had inadvertently miscalculated the dates, we imply an extension of time, and we conclude that George's notice of appeal was timely filed.”).

9. Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 10.5(b) permits an extension of time so the Texas Appellate Courts are not immediately divested of jurisdiction when unintentional errors are made, and so that the substance of appellate issues may be evaluated and reviewed by the intermediary courts. The Texas Supreme Court has articulated the proper standard for a “reasonable explanation” and counsel has sworn that its own mistake was the basis for its failure to timely file.

Counsel who prepared the Notice of Appeal and Motion for Reconsideration had not reviewed the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure since 2011 and was unfamiliar with the applicable timeline for filing.

II. Granting an Extension does not cause Prejudice to Appellees 10. Finally, Penn Virginia would show that permitting this extension and allowing the fifteen day extension to file does not prejudice Appellees in any manner whatsoever. The original deadline for Penn Virginia to file its Notice of Appeal fell on October 1, 2015. If a fifteen day extension is granted, the deadline extends to October 16, 2015. Penn Virginia filed its Notice of Appeal on October 13, 2015 and filed its Motion to Extend on October 14, 2015. Penn Virginia’s two week delay in filing from October 1, 2015 to October 13, 2015 does not cause any prejudice or hardship to Appellees.

III. Penn Virginia should not be punished for the error of counsel 11. Penn Virginia would urge this Court to exercise its discretionary authority and extend jurisdiction over this matter. Penn Virginia filed its Notice of Appeal within fifteen days after the October 1, 2015 deadline. Penn Virginia did not deliberately, strategically, or intentionally delay in filing its Notice of Appeal in an effort to subvert the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure or engage in any gamesmanship with the trial court or Appellees. Prior to learning of its error, counsel for Penn Virginia believed that, with the thirty-day deadline, it would have the opportunity to address the trial court’s specific concerns as to a particular and nuanced ambiguity in the contracts between Penn Virginia and Nabors. Penn Virginia should not be penalized for the errors made by its counsel and would request the opportunity to litigate the issues set forth in its Motion to Compel Arbitration, particularly the application of the arbitration provisions set forth in the Nabors Dispute Resolution Program.
