U.S. DISTRICT COURT MIDDLE DISTRICT OF FLORIDA

TAMPA DIVISION

MARK A ADAMS, Appellant, vs. Case No. 8:08-cv-1570-T-26 CORPORATE SPORTS MARKETING GROUP, INC. et al.,

Appellees. _______________________________/

APPELLEES’ MOTION TO SUPPLEMENT THE RECORD ON APPEAL AND EXTEND THE TIME PERIOD FOR FILING AN ANSWER BRIEF TO ONE WEEK FOLLOWING THE TRANSMITTAL OF THE COMPLETE RECORD

Appellees, CORPORATE SPORTS MARKETING GROUP, INC., et al., by

and through their undersigned counsel, move this Court for the entry of an Order

permitting supplementation of the record on appeal with the documents itemized

on the attached list and extending the time for Appellees to file and serve their

answer brief to one week after the transmittal of the supplemental record, and as

grounds would show:

1. This is an appeal from a Default Judgment entered against

Appellant on April 22, 2008 in Adversary Case No. 8:06-ap-00185-PMG based

upon Appellant’s intentional refusal to answer the Complaint after being given at

least four opportunities. Appellant also seeks relief from the subsequent Order

Denying Discharge of Debtor entered on April 23, 2008 in Bankruptcy Case No.

8:05-bk-29501-PMG, based upon the Default Judgment in the Adversary

Proceeding.

2. After initiating this appeal, Appellant failed to file and serve a

designation of the items to be included in the record on appeal or a statement of

the issues to be presented as required by Fed.R.Bank.P. 8006. As a result, the

Clerk of the Bankruptcy Court transmitted a limited record to this Court on August

15, 2008. (Docs. 1-2)

3. After Appellant failed to file his initial brief on time, this Court

entered an Order directing Appellant to file his initial brief on or before September

8, 2008. (Doc. 6)

4. On September 8, 2008, Appellant sought an extension of time and

complained that the Clerk of the Bankruptcy Court had not transmitted a

complete record. (Doc. 7)

5. On September 9, 2008, this Court ordered the Appellant to insure

that the “entire record on appeal” be filed with the Clerk of this Court on or before

September 23, 2008. (Doc. 8)

6. On September 22, 2008, Appellant filed in the Bankruptcy Court a

designation of items to be included in the record on appeal and a statement of

the issues to be presented designating only portions of the record to be

transmitted.

7. On September 29, 2008, the Clerk of the Bankruptcy Court, rather

than transmitting the entire record ordered by this Court, only transmitted the

incomplete record designated by the Appellant. (Docs. 9-11) As Appellant’s

appeal raises entirely procedural issues, the procedural course of the case is

important for a full exposition. Also, Appellant has omitted important and

3

significant documents, such as the complaint and amended complaint in the

adversary proceeding, documents evidencing that Appellant did not timely file his

bankruptcy schedules and statement of financial affairs and sought an extension

of time to do so, documents evidencing that Appellees withdrew a timely filed

objection to discharge and dischargeability based upon the Bankruptcy Court’s

extension of time, and many other extensions of time sought and obtained by

Appellant in the course of the bankruptcy proceeding.

8. As a result of the confusion and procedural irregularity caused by

the pro se Appellant’s actions, Appellees have never been afforded an

opportunity to file a designation of additional items to be included in the record.

9. In order to permit this case to be decided on a complete record,

Appellees would request that this Court enter an Order directing the Bankruptcy

Clerk to transmit to this Court the items identified on the attached list.

10. Appellees have been diligently preparing the Answer Brief but will

not be able to conclude the brief with appropriate record citations until after the

record is supplemented. Appellees would request that the Court allow one week

following the supplementation of the record for Appellees to file and serve the

Answer Brief.

11. No party will be prejudiced by the Court’s granting the relief

requested herein. A denial would severely prejudice Appellees.

WHEREFORE Appellees, CORPORATE SPORTS MARKETING GROUP,

INC. et al., move this Honorable Court for the entry of an Order permitting

4

supplementation of the record and extending the briefing schedule and granting

such other and further relief as the Court deems proper.
