FOR: _____________________________

MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE

COMMENT TO OFFER OF EVIDENCE

Defendant, by counsel, respectfully alleges that:

1. On August 3, 2013, he received a copy of the plaintiff's Offer of Evidence dated
July 25, 2013. Hence, pursuant to the order of the Honorable Court in open court
during the July 22, 2013 hearing, defendant has five (5) days or until August 8, 2013
within which to file its Comment to the same;
2. However, due to volume and pressure of work, coupled with other equally
important and urgent professional commitments, the undersigned counsel cannot
complete the said Comment to the Offer of Evidence within the period required and
will need an additional ten (10) days from August 8, 2013 or until August 18, 2013
within which to do so;
3. This motion is being filed due to the reason above-stated and not for the
purpose of delaying the instant case.

WHEREFORE, defendant prays that he be granted an additional ten (10) days from August 8,
2013 or until August 18, 2013 within which to submit a Comment to the Offer of Evidence.

Quezon City, Philippines. August 30, 2013.
