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Do not publish.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.
