           APPELLANT’S MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME
                  ______________________________

      TO THE HONORABLE JUSTICES OF THE THIRD COURT OF

APPEALS:

      COMES NOW, Christopher Brian Roberts, Appellant herein, by and

through his attorney of record, Kristen Jernigan, and files this, his Motion for

Extension of Time.     In support of said motion, Appellant would show the Court

the following:

      1.    Appellant’s brief was due in this case on January 9, 2015.

     2.     Appellant seeks an extension of sixty days in which to file his brief,
making his brief due on or before March 9, 2015.

      3.   The undersigned inadvertently failed to sign up for casemail for this
case and was not notified by the Court Reporter that the Reporter’s Record had
been filed.    Therefore, the undersigned was unaware of the previous deadline.

       4.    In the past thirty days, the undersigned has filed briefs in the First
Court of Appeals in Cause Numbers 01-14-00240-CR, Sean Michael McGuire, v.
The State of Texas; and 01-14-00241-CR, Sean Michael McGuire v. The State of
Texas. In addition, the undersigned filed a Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus in
Cause Number 08-1623-K26, Ex parte Adam Adel Hayek. Finally, the undersigned
has made numerous court appearances and has undertaken the tasks associated
with the management of a solo attorney practice.

       5.     The undersigned has not filed any previous motions for extension of
time in this case.

      6.    For the reasons set forth above, Appellant respectfully requests that he
be granted an extension of sixty days so that his brief in this case will now be due
on March 9, 2015.

                                     PRAYER

              WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, Appellant respectfully

requests that this Court grant his Motion for Extension of Time.

                                              Respectfully submitted,

                                              _______/s/__Kristen Jernigan______
