MOTION FOR SECOND EXTENSION OF TIME
TO FILE APPELLANT’S BRIEF
COMES NOW, D’ANGELO MIDDLEBROOKS, Appellant, and moves for
an extension of time in which to file the Appellant’s brief, until and including Monday,
January 11, 2016, and would further show as follows:
A. The deadline for filing the brief in this cause was December 7, 2015;
B. A request is hereby made for an extension of time to file the Appellant’s
Brief, until and including Monday, January 11, 2016;
C. The undersigned attorney, Bob Wicoff, has been unusually busy with other
matters which have kept him from completing the brief by the current deadline,
including, but not limited to, the following:
The undersigned has been appointed to serve as director of the Texas Forensic
Science Commission DNA Mixture Interpretation Triage Team, which is investigating
thousands of cases state-wide that involve possible inaccurate calculation of DNA
mixtures in criminal cases since 1999. The Forensic Science Commission, through a
grant to the Harris County Public Defender’s Office, is utilizing the undersigned full-
time to work on such project, for as long as it takes to complete it. The undersigned is
able to delegate most of his criminal appellate docket, but there remain a few cases,
like this one, that it makes sense for him to continue to work on.
D. One previous extension has been granted.
WHEREFORE, the Appellant requests that the deadline for filing his brief in
this case be extended until and including January 11, 2016.
Respectfully submitted,
ALEXANDER BUNIN
Chief Public Defender
Harris County Texas
