tive error's wnich occurred in the proceedings.     Without notice of the granting

of the extension of time to file a Motion for Rehearing, Campbell's time was

exhausted." See Tex R App P Rule 4.5(a).

     The Court nas the authority to recaj.l the mandate so long as it is done

(TCA2013);DeraiEe v State, 379 S.W.2d 903 (TCA1972).

     While the Court of Appeals does not have the authority to grant the out

of time PDR, this Court must grant the recall of the mandate to provide the

appellant the opportunity co file his Petition for Discretionary Review since
it was administrative errors which caused the forfeiture of the proceedings.

ing motion to recall the mandate because appellant did not receive notice of
opinion of the Court of Appeals.)    Tex R App P Rule 19.3.

                   AFFIDAVIT   IN SUPPORT OF LEAVE TO FILE

STATE OF TEXAS

COUNTY OF PECOS

     "I, Billy J Campbell, am over the age of 18, of sound mind, and personally
acquainted with the facts stated herein.     These facts are true and correct.

     I received a letter from Angela D'Amore, my appellate attorney, on or about

August 19, 2015.

     In her letter, she tells me that I may file a motion for rehearing & PDR

if I wanted.    Problem is, she did not tell me that I had to, file a Motion for

Rehearing by a date certain, and for me to "assume" that the Court would grant
her Motion to extend time to file a motion for rehearing.     This failure by

D'Amore, caused the proceedings to go off track, prompting this additional doc

ument filing.

     I was unaware of the importance of.     D'Amore's letter is part of the prior
motion to recall the mandate so that I could file a motion for rehearing.

     I did not recive any response to my inquiry to D'Amore if the motion re
questing an extension of time was granted, nor did I receive any notice from
the Clerk of the Court that the motion had been granted-     Missing this information

I was deprived of knowing what to do."

     "I, Billy Joe Campbell, # 1927270, am presently incarcerated at the Lynaugh
Unit of the TDCj in Pecos County, Texas.     I declare under penalty of perjury,
