TO THE HONORABLE THIRD COURT OF APPEALS:
COMES NOW, Troy Williams, by and through his attorney of record, Linda

support thereof, would show the Court the following:
I.
That the above-styled and numbered cause is styled The State of Texas v. Troy
Williams, Cause Number D-1-DC-12-904077 in the 147th Judicial District Court of
Travis County, Texas. Appellant was sentenced on April 4, 2014.
II.
Appellant was convicted of the offense of aggravated kidnapping and punishment
was assessed at sixty (60) years.
III.
Appellant’s motion for new trial was filed on April 10, 2014. Notice of appeal
was filed on April 10, 2014. The reporter’s record was filed on December 2, 2014, and
the clerk’s record was filed on August 4, 2014. The due date for the brief is Wednesday,
January 7, 2015.
IV.
This is Appellant’s first motion for extension of time to file his brief. Appellant
respectfully requests a forty-five day extension of time to file the brief, which would
make such brief due on Saturday, February 21, 2015. The next working day is Monday,
February 23, 2015.
V.
The undersigned attorney has begun work on this case but has been unable to
complete the brief due to necessary work needed to be completed on several other appeal
cases and due to her busy schedule in both the district and county courts of Travis,
Williamson and Hays Counties. She has recently filed a brief in the case of Jesus
Villalobos v. State of Texas, Cause No. 03-13-00687-CR. She is in the process of
completing a brief in the case of Edward Garcia v. State of Texas, Cause No. 03-14-
00269-CR which is due next week. She asks that this extension be granted so that she
may effectively represent Appellant and so that justice may be done in this case.
Respectfully Submitted
