COMES NOW, Warren D. Rivers, Appellant herein, by and through his attorney of record, Patrick McCann, and files this, his Second Motion for Extension of Time. In support of said motion, Appellant would show the Court the following:

1. Counsel has just filed a death Certificate of Appealability in the Fifth Circuit on August $3^{\text{rd}}$ in Norris v. Stephens. The appellee's brief in that same case is due on September $2^{\text{nd}}$ .
2. Counsel's continuance of a federal medicare fraud case in United States v. Tsolak Gregoryan was denied upon government objection, and the federal district court judge reinstated the August ${19}^{\text{th}}$ trial date so we are now headed to jury trial in this matter beginning August ${19}^{\text{th}}$ . Counsel must prepare to represent his client in this very complex fraud case.
3. Counsel is also preparing for a non-death capital trial in State of Texas v. Rene Lopez in the 180th district court.
4. Counsel had originally requested a longer extension of time in his first application and now requests 90 days as per his original request.

*2

1. This is a retrial on punishment for death and the record is extensive. Given the size of the record and the complexity of the issues for briefing, the additional time is necessary for a full and fair defense of Mr. Rivers.
2. This extension is sought in the interest of justice and not for delay.
