(c) This request is that the deadline for filing the State’s brief be extended by

30 days .

for an extension of the deadline:

1. The undersigned attorney is responsible for preparing the State’s brief in two

other pending appellate cases, (i.e., Charles Anthony Malouff, Jr. v. State of

Texas, No. 03-13-00723-CR; and Shriya Patel v. State of Texas, No. 03-14-

00238-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

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 March 19, 2015.
