NUMBER 13-14-00059-CR
COURT OF APPEALS
THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS
CORPUS CHRISTI - EDINBURG
MONICA GALVAN, Appellant,
v.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee.
On appeal from the 347th District Court
of Nueces County, Texas.
ORDER TO FILE APPELLATE BRIEF
Before Justices Rodriguez, Benavides, and Perkes
Order Per Curiam
This cause is currently before the Court on appellant's fourth extension of time to
file the brief. The reporter’s record was filed on May 1, 2014, and appellant’s brief was
originally due to be filed thirty days thereafter. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.6(a). This Court
has previously granted appellant three extensions of time totaling 149 days to file the brief,
and appellant now seeks an additional 30 days, until December 1, 2014, to file the brief.
The Court GRANTS appellant’s fourth motion to file the brief and ORDERS the
Honorable Lisa C. Harris to file the brief on or before December 1, 2014. The Court looks
with disfavor on the delay caused by counsel’s failure to timely file a brief in this matter.
No further extensions will be granted absent exigent circumstances. If counsel fails to
file the brief within the specified period of time, the Court will act appropriately to ensure
that appellant's rights are protected. See id. R. 38.8(b)(4).
PER CURIAM
Do not publish.
TEX. R. APP. P. 47.2(b).
Delivered and filed the
6th day of November, 2014.
