Charles G. Villarreal v. State

TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN NO. 03-14-00095-CR Charles Villareal, Appellant v. The State of Texas, Appellee FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF COMAL COUNTY, 433RD JUDICIAL DISTRICT NO. CR2013-065, HONORABLE DIB WALDRIP, JUDGE PRESIDING ORDER PER CURIAM The State’s brief on appeal was originally due on January 2, 2015. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.6(b) (appellee’s brief generally due thirty days after appellant files brief). On December 30, 2015, we granted Chari Kelly, counsel for the State, a sixty-day extension of time to file the State’s brief, extending the deadline to March 3. Kelly did not file the brief by March 3. Instead, on March 3 and April 2, Kelly filed second and third motions for extension of time, each time explaining that she was having difficulty preparing the brief because she was dealing with a heavy work load. On April 30, 2015, Kelly filed a fourth motion for extension of time, asking for eighteen additional days for a total of 136 days. We therefore grant the State’s motion and order Kelly to file the brief in this cause no later than May 18, 2015. No further extension of time will be granted. It is ordered May 8, 2015.
