This is Appellant’s first request for extension of time.

III. Counsel was hired May 1, 2015, by Appellant to work on this matter. Counsel for Appellant has worked diligently on Appellant’s Petition for Discretion Review since being hired, but has been, and will be, unable to complete it by the current due date for the following reason:

IV. This request is not made for the purpose of delay, but rather this request is made to allow counsel adequate time to prepare Appellant’s Petition for Discretionary Review. Appellant moves this Court for an order granting an extension of forty-five (45) days, or until June 19, 2015, for Appellant to submit the Petition for Discretionary Review in this case.
