On Appeal from the 272nd Judicial District Court, Brazos County UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE REPLY BRIEF In accordance with Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 10.5(b), Appellant the Board of Regents of the Texas A&M University System files this motion for exten- sion of time to file its reply brief. Appellant’s reply brief is currently due to be filed on September 23. Appellant requests a seven-day extension of this deadline, up to and including September 30. This is Appellant’s second request for an extension for this filing, and it is unopposed.

This request is necessary due to multiple engagements by Appellant’s counsel that have required or will require significant attention since receiving Appellee’s brief, including:  an opening brief in Cox v. State of Texas, No. 15-25-00117-CV, filed in in this court on August 27;  a brief in Texas A&M Queer Empowerment v. Mahomes, No. 4:25-cv-00992, filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas on Sep- tember 2;  oral argument in In re H.S., B.S., and M.S., No. 24-0307, presented before the Texas Supreme Court on September 9;  a response brief in City of College Station v. PUC, No. 15-25-00096-CV, filed in this court on September 15;  a cross-response in State of Texas v. Cox, No. 15-25-00117-CV, due to be filed in this Court today, prior to opposing counsel’s extension motion, filed yesterday and granted this morning;  a response to petition for review in Mabee, et al v. Railroad Commission of Texas, No. 25-0077, due to be filed in the Texas Supreme Court on September 17;  a petition for rehearing en banc in State of Texas v. Bondi, No. 24-10386, to be filed in the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit by September 29.

This extension is sought in the interest of justice, not for delay, and no party will be prejudiced if this unopposed request for an extension of time is granted. This is Appellant’s second request for an extension of this deadline, and Appellees do not oppose. For these reasons, Appellant respectfully requests that the Court grant its unopposed motion for a seven-day extension of time to file its brief, resulting in a new deadline of September 30, 2025.

Respectfully submitted.
