The trial court then sentenced Applicant to confinement for life in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice – Institutional Division. On October 18, 2012, the Second Court of Appeals affirmed the trial court’s judgment. Hailey v. State, 413 S.W.3d 457 (Tex. App. – Fort Worth Oct. 18, 2012, pet. ref’d). On June 30, 2015, Applicant filed this application for writ of habeas corpus. 1 The State was served on that date. The trial court’s 180 day deadline to resolve the issues in this application for writ of habeas corpus is December 28, 2015, because December 27, 2015, is a Sunday. See Tex. R. App. 73.5. II. AN ADDITIONAL THIRTY DAY EXTENSION IS REQUESTED The trial court requests that this Court grant an additional thirty (30) day extension of time for resolution of the issues and submit the writ record in this application. If this extension is granted, the resolution of the issues would be accomplished on or before January 26, 2016, and the writ record submitted on or before January 27, 2016.
