Gregorio Ramirez v. State

NUMBER 13-17-00173-CR COURT OF APPEALS THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS CORPUS CHRISTI - EDINBURG GREGORIO RAMIREZ, Appellant, v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee. On appeal from the 357th District Court of Cameron County, Texas. ORDER TO FILE APPELLATE BRIEF Before Justices Rodriguez, Benavides, and Longoria Order Per Curiam This cause is currently before the Court on appellant's third unopposed motion for extension of time to file the brief. The reporter’s record was filed on June 13, 2017, and appellant’s brief was originally due to be filed thirty days thereafter. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.6(a). This Court has previously granted appellant two extensions of time totaling 122 days to file the brief, and appellant now seeks an additional 60 days, until January 16, 2018, to file the brief. The Court GRANTS appellant’s third unopposed motion for extension to file the brief and ORDERS the Honorable Edmund K. Cyganiewicz to file the brief on or before January 16, 2018. The Court looks with disfavor on the delay caused by counsel’s failure to timely file a brief in this matter. No further extensions will be granted absent exigent circumstances. If counsel fails to file the brief within the specified period of time, the Court will act appropriately to ensure that appellant's rights are protected. See id. R. 38.8(b)(4). PER CURIAM Do not publish. TEX. R. APP. P. 47.2(b). Delivered and filed the 27th day of October, 2017. 2
