 STATE’S UNOPPOSED MOTION TO EXTEND TIME TO FILE BRIEF


To the Honorable Court of Appeals:

      Comes now Stephen Morris, Assistant Bell County Attorney, representing the

State of Texas and files this Motion to Extend Time to File a Brief in answer, and

shows as follows:

      1. This is an appeal in a criminal case. Appellant’s Brief was filed on August

25, 2015.

      2. The State’s Brief is due September 24, 2015.

      3. The State seeks to extend the time of filing its Brief by thirty (30) days. If

granted, the extension would require the State’s Brief to be due on or before October

23, 2015.

      4. Good cause exists for this extension of time. State’s appellate counsel in

addition to being assigned the instant appeal, he has been assigned the appeal of Writ

of Habeas Corpus, COA No. 03-15-00334. He also has been assigned and is carrying

a full case load. Additional time is needed to complete the Brief.

      5. There has been no previous extension granted to the State regarding this

appeal.

      6. This motion is unopposed by Appellant’s counsel.
      Wherefore, premises considered, the State respectfully requests that the Court

extend the time for filing his Brief up to and including October 23, 2015.



                                                    Respectfully submitted,
