 TIMOTHY JAMES LINDBERG, Appellant, v. STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

        APPELLANT'S UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR EXTENSION
      OF TIME TO FILE PETITION FOR DISCRETIONARY REVIEW

TO THE HONORABLE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS OF TEXAS:

       1. On September 24,2015, the Second Court of Appeals issued its opinion in

this cause (Lindberg v. State, Cause No. 02-14-00071-CR). No motion for rehearing

or motion for reconsideration     en bane was filed. Therefore, a petition for

discretionary review must be filed by October 24, 2015, which is 30 days after the

Court of Appeals' judgment was rendered. See Tex. R. App. P. 68.2(a). Appellant

seeks a 30-day extension of this deadline.

       2. Appellant has not sought or been granted a previous extension of time to

file a petition.

       3. The undersigned counsel was just appointed by the trial court from which

this cause was appealed to petition this court for review of the Court of Appeals'

decision in this case. Undersigned counsel has two felony cases set for trial next

month (one the week of November 2 and the other the week of November 9), a

                                                                                     1
motion for rehearing and a motion for reconsideration en bane on another case due

on October 26, and an Appellee's Brief for another case due on October 28.

      4. Appellee does not oppose this motion.

      Based on the foregoing, Appellant asks that the deadline to file his petition for

discretionary review be extended to November 23,2015.

                                           Respectfully Submitted,
