THE STATE OF TEXAS § APPELLEE
APPEAL FROM THE 299TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT
TRAVIS COUNTY, TEXAS
CAUSE NO. D-1-DC-14-300723
STATE'S THIRD MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME
TO THE HONORABLE COURT OF APPEALS:
The State of Texas respectfully moves for an extension of the deadline for filing
the State’s brief and, in accordance with Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure 38.6 and
10.5(b), advises the Court as follows:
(a) Following his conviction for Aggravated Sexual Assault of a Child, the
appellant filed his notice of appeal in the above cause on November 20, 2015.
Appellant’s counsel filed a brief on August 19, 2016.
1
(b) The State’s brief is currently due on November 18, 2016.
(c) This request is that the deadline for filing the State’s brief be extended by
30 days.
(d) The number of previous extensions of time granted for submission of the
State’s brief is: two.
(e) The State relies upon the following facts to reasonably explain the need
for an extension of the deadline:
1. During the period since this brief was filed, the attorney assigned to this case
has completed and filed the State’s brief in another pending appellate case
(i.e. Edward Funderburke v. State of Texas, No. 03-15-00634-CR). The
undersigned attorney has also been assigned to prepare a response for two
other pending appellate cases, (i.e. Robert Lee Martin v. State of Texas, No.
03-16-00575-CR; and Jose Hernandez-Javier v. State of Texas, No. 08-16-
00195-CR).
2. This request is not made for the purpose of delay, but to ensure that the Court
has a proper State’s brief to aid in the just disposition of the above cause.
2
WHEREFORE, the State of Texas respectfully requests that the deadline for
filing the State’s brief be extended to December 19, 2016.
Respectfully submitted,
ROSEMARY LEHMBERG
District Attorney
Travis County, Texas
