Albert Rodriguez Medellin v. State

NUMBER 13-13-00190-CR COURT OF APPEALS THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS CORPUS CHRISTI - EDINBURG ALBERT RODRIGUEZ MEDELLIN, Appellant, v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee. On appeal from the 207th District Court of ComalCounty, Texas. ORDER TO FILE APPELLATE BRIEF Before Justices Garza, Benavides, and Perkes Order Per Curiam This cause is before the Court on appellant's fifth motion for extension of time to file the brief. Appellant’s brief was originally due to be filed on August 22, 2013, and this Court has previously granted appellant four extensions for the filing of appellant’s brief in this cause. On February 4, 2014, a supplemental record was filed and this Court granted appellant until March 3, 2014 to file the brief. The Court, having fully examined and considered appellant's fifth motion for extension of time to file the brief and the extensions previously granted in this cause, is of the opinion that, in the interest of justice, appellant's fifth motion for extension of time to file the brief should be granted with order. The Court, however, looks with disfavor upon the delay caused by counsel's failure to have filed a brief in this matter. Appellant's fifth motion for extension of time to file the brief is GRANTED, and the Honorable Larry Warner, counsel for appellant, is ORDERED to file the appellate brief with this Court on or before April 25, 2014. Further motions for extension of time will not be favorably entertained by the Court. The Clerk of this Court is ORDERED to serve a copy of this order on the Honorable Larry Warner by certified mail, return receipt requested. PER CURIAM Do not publish. TEX. R. APP. P. 47.2(b). Delivered and filed the 14th day of April, 2014. 2
