      MOTION TO EXTEND TIME TO FILE APPELLANT'S BRIEF

TO THE HONORABLE JUSTICES OF SAID COURT:

      Now comes Cody Thomas, Appellant in the above styled and numbered

cause, and moves this Court to grant an extension of time to file appellant's brief,

pursuant to Rule 38.6 of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure, and for good

cause shows the following:

      1.    This case is on appeal from the 8th Judicial District Court of Hopkins

County, Texas.

      2.    The case below was styled the STATE OF TEXAS vs. Cody Thomas,

and numbered 1423904.

      3.    Appellant was convicted of THEFT PROP >=$1,500<20K.

      4.    Appellant was assessed a sentence of 20 YEARS on JUNE 18, 2015.

      5.    Notice of appeal was given on JUNE 18, 2015.

      6.    The appellate brief is presently due on April 13, 2015.

      7.    Appellant requests an extension of time of 14 days from the present
date.

        8.    No extension to file the brief has been received in this cause.

        11.   Defendant is currently incarcerated.

        12.   Appellant relies on the following facts as good cause for the requested

extension:

              Appellant’s attorney’s court schedule has prevented him from

completing the Appellant’s Brief. Appellant’s attorney requests two additional

weeks for him to prepare the Brief for filing.

        WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, Appellant prays that this

Court grant this Motion To Extend Time to File Appellant's Brief, and for such

other and further relief as the Court may deem appropriate.

                                        Respectfully submitted,
