APPELLANT'S THIRD MOTION TO EXTEND TIME TO FILE BRIEF
TO THE HONORABLE JUSTICES OF SAID COURT:
Julio Alvarado, Appellant in the above cause, would respectfully request that the
Court grant his motion to extend the time to file his brief. In support of said motion,
Appellant would show unto the Court the following:
I.
This appeal lies from Appellant's convictions in The State of Texas v. Julio Alvarado,
cause numbers 1325689 and 1325690 in the 232th District Court of Harris County, Texas.
The Appellant was charged by indictment with two counts of aggravated sexual assault of a
child on November 2, 2011. The Appellant was found guilty on September 30, 2013,
following a jury trial. The Appellant was sentenced to five (5) and six (6), to be served
concurrently, years confinement in the Texas Department of Corrections. This appeal was
abated on August 27, 2014 to determine the identity of Appellant’s counsel. The trial court
determined Cory Roth is Appellant’s counsel. This appeal was reinstated after abatement on
September 18, 2014. This Honorable Court granted Appellant an extension to turn in his
brief on November 19, 2014.
II.
Appellant's attorney of record has not been able to timely file the brief for the
following reasons since the first extension was granted:
1. Working on various cases preparing for trial.
III.
An extension of time is necessary so that the brief can be timely filed. This motion is
not made for the purpose of delay.
WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, Appellant prays that this Honorable
Court will grant this requested extension of time to file the Appellant's Brief in the above
cause and extend the time for filing the brief for thirty (30) days.
Respectfully submitted,
