THE STATE OF TEXAS
APPELLEE
APPELLANT’S FINAL MOTION TO EXTEND TIME
TO FILE PETITION FOR DISCRETIONARY REVIEW
ACCOMPANIED BY PDR
TO THE HONORABLE JUDGES OF THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS:
COMES NOW, BOBBY EASLEY, and files this his Motion to Extend Time to File Petition for
Discretionary Review, and in support thereof, would respectfully show the Court the
following:
I.
The First Court of Appeals affirmed the trial court’s judgment in Easley v. State, 01-14-00296-
CR, 2015 WL 1263140 (Tex. App.—Houston [1st Dist.] Mar. 19, 2015, no. pet. h.). No motion
for rehearing was filed. One previous motion for extension has been granted.
II.
In compliance with Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 68.2(c), this motion for extension is
filed within 15 days of the deadline for the PDR, which was May 20, 2015. Counsel humbly
requests this brief extension because, although counsel expected to complete the PDR earlier,
her work schedule was interrupted by family illness and local flooding. Additionally, counsel
has been engaged in work in the Harris County Public Defender’s Office on many cases,
including the following:
Rodney Robins, 01-14-00582-CR
Stephen Hopper, 14-15-00371-CR
Pete Rodriguez, 14-15-00339-CR
Vincent Williams, 14-15-00220-CR June 4, 2015
Darryle Robertson, 14-15-00132-CR
Leonard Storemski, 14-14-00921-CR
Counsel has been researching and writing for several trial cases assigned to the Public
Defender’s Office Trial Division.
III.
Appellant’s attorney requests this brief extension which is necessary so that the petition can
be thoroughly written and timely filed. This motion is not made for the purpose of delay.
PRAYER
WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, Appellant prays that this Honorable Court grants this
requested extension of time to file the appellant’s petition for discretionary review in the above
cause and extend the time for filing to June 3, 2015.
Respectfully submitted,
