TO THE HONORABLE COURT OF APPEALS:
      Counsel for Appellant requests an Extension of Time to File the Appellant's
Brief; the following is satisfied:

                  judgment on March 27, 2015;

      2.     Appellant's trial court number is 74447;

      3.     The appeal in this case was perfected on March 27,

      4.     The Transcript and Statement of Facts were filed
                  on August 10 , 2015 and consists of nine (9)
                  volumes of exhibits and testimony;

      5.     Notice of said filing was received by Appellate
                   Counsel sometime after the postmarked date
                   of August 12, 2015, however dure to family
                     vacation, such was not received until August

      10.    The facts relied upon to support this request for an
                   extension are:

      Appellant's brief is well on its way to being completed. However, due to

being involved in the following trials, I have been unable to file the brief within the

original deadline:

      a.     State of Texas v. David Amerson
             Cause No. CR-15-0138
             Hays County District Court

             Coaml County Court at Law No. 2
             Trial Scheduled – September 8, 2015;

      Therefore, appellant prays that this Court grant an extension of time of sixty

(60) days so that Appellant can properly review the record and file a brief.
