On November 24, 2015, this Court’s Order struck appellant’s brief as premature and
for noncompliance with Rule 38.1 and ordered appellant’s amended brief to be filed
within 30 days of that Order, or by December 28, 2015. See TEX. R. APP. P. 4.1(a),
38.1, 38.6(a)(1). Accordingly, appellant’s pro se motion for an extension to amend
appellant’s brief, which does not request a specific extension period, is denied without
prejudice to refiling an extension request that includes the length of the extension
sought. See id. 10.5(b)(1)(B), 38.6(d). Appellant’s amended brief that complies with
Rule 38.1 remains due to be filed by December 28, 2015.
