STATE OF TEXAS § OF TEXAS

MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME

TO FILE THE PETITION FOR

DISCRETIONARY REVIEW

To the Honorable Judges of the Court of Criminal Appeals:

COMES NOW Luis Daniel Ayala, Petitioner, and files this motion to extend

the time to file his PDR to November 4, 2017.

I.

The court of appeals overruled the petitioner’s motion for rehearing on

September 5, 2017. No prior motion has been filed to extend time for a PDR.

II.

The reason for this request is as follows: Undersigned counsel represents

many other clients on appeal and parole revocation proceedings, and has not until

now had time to prepare the PDR in this case.

WHEREFORE, the Petitioner prays the Court grant an extension of time to

file his PDR to November 4, 2017.

Respectfully submitted,
