Anderson Cancer Center Appellants, v. GENSETIX, INC., Appellee. _________________________________________________________________ On Appeal from Cause No. 2021-73071 In the 152nd Judicial District of Harris County, Texas

UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE APPELLANTS’ BRIEF

Pursuant to Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure 10.5(b) and 38.6(d), Appellants, The Board of Regents of the University of Texas System, The University of Texas System, and The University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center (“Appellants”) file this unopposed motion seeking a 30-day extension of time to file Appellants’ Brief to May 7, 2025. In support of this motion, Appellants show the following:

1. Appellants filed an interlocutory appeal pursuant to Civil Practice and Remedies Code section 51.014(a)(8), which allows for an immediate appeal from an order that denies a plea to the jurisdiction.

Appellants’ deadline to file Appellants’ Brief is April 7, 2025.

2. The following grounds provide good cause for extending the time to file Appellee’s Brief. Appellant’s counsel has been busy preparing for Supplemental Briefing and Response to a Motion to Intervene and Amicus Briefing before this Court in No. 15-24-00057-CV, Tarleton State University v. Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression; a March 17, 2025 deadline for Appellants’ Briefing before this Court in No. 15-25-00013-CV, State of Texas et al. v. Broadmoor Austin Associates, and No. 15-25-00012- CV, State of Texas et al. v. 8317 Cross Park, LLC; a May 5, 2025 deadline for Appellee’s Briefing before this Court in No. 15-25-00017-CV, In re Guardianship of Landen Thomas Griswold, an Incapacitated Person; and a April 7, 2025 deadline for Merits Briefing before the Texas Supreme Court, 24-1078, Paxton v. City of Austin and Austin Transit Partnership Local Government Corporation.

3. This is the first request for an extension of time to file Appellants’ Brief before this Court.

4. The motion is unopposed.

5. This motion is not filed for the purpose of delay, nor will Appellee be harmed because Appellee is unopposed to this extension request.

Prayer For these reasons, Appellants respectfully request that the Court grant an extension of time of 30-days to file Appellants’ Brief to May 7, 2025 and grant it any other relief to which it may be justly entitled.

Respectfully submitted.
