THE STATE OF TEXAS § APPELLEE
APPEAL FROM THE 390TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT
TRAVIS COUNTY, TEXAS
CAUSE NO. D1-DC-12-205121
STATE'S SECOND MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME
TO THE HONORABLE COURT OF APPEALS:
The State of Texas respectfully moves for an extension of the deadline for filing
the State’s brief and, in accordance with Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure 38.6 and
10.5(b), advises the Court as follows:
(a) Following his convictions for Aggravated Robbery with a Deadly Weapon,
the appellant filed his notice of appeal in the above cause on March 7, 2014.
Appellant’s counsel filed a brief on January 15, 2015.
1
(b) The State’s brief is currently due on March 19, 2015.
(c) This request is that the deadline for filing the State’s brief be extended by
30 days.
(d) The number of previous extensions of time granted for submission of the
State’s brief is: one.
(e) The State relies upon the following facts to reasonably explain the need
for an extension of the deadline:
1. During the period since the appellant’s brief was filed, the undersigned
attorney has completed and filed an original brief in two other pending
appellate cases (i.e., In re Robert Lee Brown, No. 03-14-00681-CR; and
Shriya Patel v. State of Texas, No. 03-14-00238-CR). The undersigned
attorney has also completed and filed a supplemental brief in another
pending appellate case (i.e., In the Matter of J.M., No. 03-14-00027-CV).
The undersigned attorney is responsible for preparing the State’s brief in
another pending appellate case, (i.e., Charles Anthony Malouff, Jr. v. State of
Texas, No. 03-13-00723-CR).
2. In addition, the undersigned attorney, as the director of the Appellate
Division of the Travis County District Attorney’s Office, has been required,
during the pendency of the instant appeal, to spend a considerable amount of
2
time working on a variety of other legal matters and administrative issues.
3. This request is not made for the purpose of delay, but to ensure that the
Court has a proper State’s brief to aid in the just disposition of the above
cause.
WHEREFORE, the State of Texas respectfully requests that the deadline for
filing the State’s brief be extended to April 20, 2015.
Respectfully submitted,
