STATE OF TEXAS § IN THE DISTRICT COURT
§
VS. § HARRIS COUNTY,TEXAS
§
FINLEY WRIGHT § 174TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT
MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME
WITHIN WHICH TO FILE APPELLANT’S
PETITION FOR DISCRETIONARY REVIEW
NOW COMES FINLEY WRIGHT, appellant in the above-captioned
cause, by and through his attorney, TERRENCE GAISER, and files his
Motion for Extension of Time Within Which to File Appellant’s Petition for
Discretionary Review; for which he would show:
1.) Appellant appeals from a judgment of guilt and forty year sentence for
the offense of aggravated sexual assault
2.) On February 12, 2015, a panel of the First Court of Appeals in Cause No.
01-13-00838-CR, Finley Wright v. State of Texas, issued a memorandum
opinion affirming appellant’s judgment. No motion for rehearing was filed..
Appellant’s Petition for Discretionary Review is due on Monday, March 16,
2015. This is the first requested extension. Appellant requests a thirty-day
extension to and including April 15, 2014.
3.) This extension is being sought for the following reasons:
After careful review of the opinion of the Court of Appeals and the transcript
of this case, in counsel’s professional opinion, further review of this case
would be frivolous and without further merit. Counsel has informed
appellant of his right to seek discretionary review, pro se, of this cause and
will inform appellant of this request for extension.
4.) Counsel will file a motion to withdraw as attorney of record in the First
Court of Appeals and will inform appellant, by copy of that motion, and that
he has a right to object to the motion.
WHEREFORE, premises considered, appellant prays for an extension
of time to file appellant’s petition for discretionary review to and including
April 15, 2015.
Respectfully Submitted,
