PETITIONER'S MOTION TO EXTEND TIME TO FILE
PETITION FOR DISCRETIONARY REVIEW
TO THE HONORABLE JUSTICES OF SAID COURT:
JONATHAN GLEN JOHNSON, Petitioner in the above cause number,
would respectfully request the Court to grant his motion to extend the time to file his
petition for discretionary review. In support of said motion, Appellant would show
unto the Court the following:
I.
This appeal lies from Appellant's convictions in The State of Texas v. Jonathan
Glen Johnson, Cause Numbers 1377006 and 1377007 in the 263rd District Criminal
Court of Harris County, Texas. Mr. Johnson was charged in two separate
indictments with aggravated robbery. On November 7, 2013, he pled guilty, without
the benefit of a plea bargain, to both charges. On January 30, 2014, a sentencing
V
hearing was held and at the conclusion of the hearing the court sentenced Mr.
Johnson to fifteen (15) years confinement on both counts with the two sentences
running concurrendy. Notice of Appeal was timely filed on February 18, 2014. A
motion for new trial was filed on March 3, 2014, but overruled by operation of law
without a hearing on April 15, 2014.
II.
Appellant is requesting an extension of time in order to fully evaluate the issues
to be raised in the PDR. An extension of time is necessary so that the petition for
discretionary review can be timely filed. This motion is not made for the purpose of
delay.
WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, Appellant prays that this
Honorable Court will grant this requested extension of time to file the Appellant's
Petition for Discretionary Review in the above cause for ninety days and extend the
time for filing the petition until July 8, 2015.
Respectfully submitted,
