The State of TexasAppellee
Fourth Court of Appeals
San Antonio, Texas
April 29, 2014
No. 04-13-00572-CR
Fernando LOPEZ,
Appellant
v.
The STATE of Texas,
Appellee
From the 25th Judicial District Court, Guadalupe County, Texas
Trial Court No. 12-2454-CR
Honorable William Old, Judge Presiding
ORDER
The State’s brief was originally due March 27, 2014; however, the court granted an
extension of time until April 28, 2014 to file the brief. The State has filed a motion requesting an
additional extension of time.
We grant the motion and we order the State to file the brief by May 27, 2014 (60 days
after the original due date). Counsel is advised that no further extensions of time will be granted
absent a motion that (1) demonstrates extraordinary circumstances justifying further delay, (2)
advises the court of the efforts counsel has expended in preparing the brief, and (3) provides the
court reasonable assurance that the brief will be completed and filed by the requested extended
deadline. If the brief or a conforming motion is not filed by the date ordered, the court may order
the case submitted without a State’s brief.
