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.
