Justin Luna v. State

Fourth Court of Appeals San Antonio, Texas January 7, 2019 No. 04-18-00581-CR Justin LUNA, Appellant v. The STATE of Texas, Appellee From the 187th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2012CR9367 Honorable Joey Contreras, Judge Presiding ORDER Appellant’s brief was due December 14, 2018. Neither the brief nor a motion for extension of time was filed. On December 18, 2018, this court sent appellant a written notice advising counsel that the brief was past due. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.8. On December 28, 2018, appellant filed his first motion for extension of time. In that motion, appellant states he is requesting “30 days” to complete the brief, but then prays that this court grant him “an additional ten days from today’s date” to file the brief. After review, we interpret appellant’s request as one for thirty additional days from the original due date. Accordingly, we GRANT appellant’s motion and ORDER appellant to file his brief in this court on or before January 14, 2019. See Tex. R. App. P. 4.1(a). _________________________________ Beth Watkins, Justice IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and affixed the seal of the said court on this 7th day of January, 2019. ___________________________________ KEITH E.
