Appellant was convicted by a jury of Attempt to Commit Capital Murder, Aggravated Kidnapping, Aggravated Robbery, and Tampering with Physical Evidence. Her punishment was assessed by the trial court at 30 years for the Attempted Capital Murder, Aggravated Kidnapping and Aggravated Robbery offenses, for which there was a deadly weapon finding. She received 10 years for the Tampering offense. The sentences were to be served concurrently. Appellant was also assessed court costs. Appellant’s brief was filed on July 2, 2015. The State’s brief is currently due on October 2, 2015. 1 II. I was the attorney for the State at trial, and I am handling the State’s brief on appeal. From the 8th to the 15th of September I tried a sexual assault of a child case in CR2011-575. I had another trial involving the sexual assault of a child from September 14th to the 23rd. I subsequently joined the rest of my office in Corpus Christi for a CLE conference on the 24th and 25th of September. Additionally, I have had to manage my regular docket. I have completed some of the work on the State’s response. However, because of the foregoing, I have not yet been able to finish it and respectfully request an extension of 14 days to file the State’s brief in the instant cause. This is the third extension sought by Appellee. Appellant does not oppose the instant motion. III. WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, the State’s counsel respectfully prays for an extension of 14 days, until October 16, 2015, so that an adequate response may be made to Appellant’s brief. This extension is not requested for purposes of delay but so that justice may be done. Respectfully submitted, /s/ Chari L. Kelly Chari L.
