   TO THE HONORABLE               JUSTICES      OF   THE     TEXAS     COURT        OF
   CRIMINAL APPEALS:

         The State files this First Motion for Extension of Time in Which to File
   the State's Petitionfor Discretionary Review, and in support states:

           1.   The Eleventh Court Of Appeals rendered judgment in the styled
   case no. 11-11-00283-CR on May 14, 2015.

           2.   The State's current deadline for filing her petition is June 15,
   2015.
       3.     This is the State's first motion for extension of time in which to
file her petition.

       4.     The State respectfully requests an extension of approximately
thirty days, until July 15, 2015 in which to file her petition.

       5.    Good cause exists for the State's request for extension of time.
The Hays County District Attorney Office Civil Division has undergone
major changes in the past months. The undersigned attorney recently assumed
full time duties as an attorney for the Department of Family and Protective
Services within the District Attorney's office.

       6.     This extension is not being sought to cause undue delay, but to
seek justice.

       7.    For the foregoing reasons, the State respectfully requests that the
Court grant an approximate fifteen day extension for filing the State's
Petition for Discretionary Review, until July 15, 2015.

                                       ctfully submitted,
