FAROUK DAVID ODARIKO, APPELLANT
v.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, APPELLEE STATE = S MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME
TO THE HONORABLE COURT OF APPEALS:
COMES NOW, THE STATE OF TEXAS, by and through the undersigned
Assistant District Attorney, and moves this Court to grant an extension of time for
the State to file its brief in the above styled and numbered cause. In support thereof,
the State would show the following:
1. The Clerk = s Record was filed in this case on May 29, 2014.
2. The Reporter = s Record was filed in this case on September 15, 2014. The State s brief in this cause is due on January 12, 2015. Appellant
was granted two extensions of time to file his brief. The State has not
filed any previous requests for extension of time to file its brief in this
cause. The State’s attorney assigned to this case currently has many other
pending matters including several pending appeals, writs, and an oral
argument in a death penalty case, Andrus v. State , AP-76,936, set for
oral argument in El Paso, Texas on February 5, 2015. *2 In light of the many other matters the State’s attorney has currently
pending, the State would request that the deadline to file the State’s
brief be extended sixty (60) days. This extension is not sought for the sole purpose of delay.
WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, the State prays that this
Honorable Court grant this motion and extend the deadline for filing the State s brief
in this case.
Respectfully submitted,
