THE STATE OF TEXAS, §
APPELLEE §
APPELLANT’S MOTION TO EXTEND TIME
TO FILE PETITION FOR DISCRETIONARY
REVIEW
COMES NOW Eric Bledsoe, by and through Barry G. Johnson, his attorney
of record, and files this motion to extend the time for thirty days to file a petition
for discretionary review.
I.
The court of appeals below is the Court of Appeals for the Second Court of
Appeals District. The style and number of the cases in the Fort Worth Court is
Bledsoel v. State, No. 02-14-00450-CR.
II.
On October 29, the Fort Worth Court issued an opinion affirming the trial
court’s judgment. See Bledsoe v. State, No. 02-14-00450-CR, (Tex. App.—Fort
Worth October 29, 2015). Appellant did not file a motion for rehearing.
November 25, 2015
III.
The current deadline for filing the petition for discretionary review is
November 28, 2015. Appellant now requests an extension of 33 days – until
December 31, 2015 – to file the State’s petition. Appellant has not previously
requested an extension of time to file a petition for review in this case.
IV.
This extension is not for the purposes of delay, but rather so that
undersigned counsel may adequately set forth the Appellant’s position in its
grounds for review. The undersigned has been working on this PDR, on a reply
brief to this court in Isbell v. State, No. PD-0469-15 through -0472-15, as well as
carrying a trial docket of civil and criminal cases.
Wherefore, Appellant prays that the Court grant an extension of 33 days to
December 31, 2015, for filing Appellant’s petition for discretionary review.
