APPELLANT’S SECOND MOTION TO EXTEND TIME FOR
FILING OF APPELLANT’S BRIEF
TO THE HONORABLE COURT OF APPEALS:
COMES NOW THE APPELLANT, by and through his appointed
attorney of record, Paul M. Evans, in the above entitled and numbered
cause, and moves this Court, to grant the Appellant’s Second Motion to
Extend Time for Filing Appellant’s Brief, and, in support thereof, would
show the Court as follows:
I.
Appellant’s Brief was due before this Court on April 14, 2015. A
previous Motion to Extend Time was filed on April 6, 2015. The prior
motion was granted on April 8, 2015.
II.
The undersigned counsel had previously represented in good faith to
this Court that he anticipated filing an Anders brief in the instant cause.
However, Counsel has determined that the record does in fact contain a
potentially meritorious, non-frivolous issue that deserves to be brought to
this Court’s attention. Accordingly, the present Draft of the Appellant’s
Brief—essentially, a brief written according to Anders procedure—will
need substantial revision.
III.
Counsel would very respectfully request that the deadline for the
Appellant’s brief be extended to May 1, 2015, in order that the undersigned
counsel may have adequate time and opportunity to revise the present draft
of the Appellant’s Brief and complete the necessary research and drafting to
present the issue described above.
IV.
This Motion is not made for purposes of delay, but so that justice
might be served.
WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, the Defendant respectfully
prays that this Court, upon good cause shown, grant the Appellant’s Second
Motion to Extend Time for Filing Appellant’s Brief.
Respectfully submitted,
