        MOTION TO EXTEND THE TIME TO FILE THE
           PDR CONTEMPORANEOUSLY FILED
                  WITH THIS MOTION
TO THE HONORABLE JUDGES OF THE
COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS:

      COMES NOW Roger Stone, Appellant, and files this motion to extend the

time to file the PDR to June 22, 2015. In support, the Appellant respectfully shows

the Court the following:

                                        I.

      The court of appeals’ ruling was issued on May 15, 2015, making the PDR

due June 14, 2015. No prior extension motion has been filed.

                                        II.

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

many appellate clients whose briefs, motions for rehearing or PDRs were due

around the time of the Appellant’s Brief is due in this case, and has not until now

had time to prepare this Brief.
      WHEREFORE, the Appellant prays the Court grant an extension of time to

file his PDR to June 22, 2015, the date the PDR is electronically filed.

                                              Respectfully submitted,
