The State of Texas, moves for an extension of Thirty (30) Days in which to file its Brief herein, pursuant to Tex. R. App. P. 10.5(b). The State's request is based upon the following reasonable explanation of the need for additional time, within the personal knowledge of Gabriel Price, the attorney signing this motion, namely:
The State of Texas moves this court to allow an extension of thirty (30) days to file its Brief. The State's Brief was due on January 7, 2015. The State's attorney has been occupied preparing other briefs including, State v. Kussmaul, No. 10-14-00333-CR, due January 12, 2015, State v. Long, No. 10- 14-00330-CR, due January 12, 2015, State v. Pitts, No. 10-14-00332-CR, due January 12, 2015, State v. Shelton, No. 10-14-00331-CR, due January 12, 2015, (the above four cases dealing with a post-conviction DNA State's appeal), Kirven v. State, No. 10-13-00294-CR, filed January 12, 2015, Reid v. State, No. 10-14-107-CR, filed December 28, 2014. Additionally, one of the State's attorneys assigned to the appellate division has just returned from an extended leave under FMLA. The additional time sought is not sought frivolously or for delay, but will be of genuine assistance in preparing the State's brief.
The State requests that the new deadline for filing of the State's Brief be February 6,2015. This is the State's first request for an extension for filing of its brief in this cause.
The additional time sought is not sought frivolously or for delay. For the foregoing reasons, the State prays that the Court grant this Motion and modify and extend the deadline for filing the State's brief to February 6,2015 or that this Court grant such additional time as is just and proper.
