TO THE HONORABLE COURT OF APPEALS OF TEXAS:

      COMES NOW THE STATE OF TEXAS, in accordance with Rules 10.5(b)(1)

and 38.6(d) of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure, and files this motion for

extension of time in which to file the State’s brief in these cases, and, in support

thereof, presents the following:

      1. In the 184th district court of Harris County, Texas, cause 1388920, the State of

          Texas v. Segismundo Gonzalez, appellant, was convicted of theft.

      2. He was assessed punishment of confinement for 17 years in the Institutional

      Division of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice.
       3. The State’s brief was due on April 3, 2015.

       4. An extension of time in which to file the State’s brief is requested until

       March 18, 2015.

       5. No previous extensions have been requested by the State.

       6. The facts relied upon to explain the need for this extension are:

        Since appellant filed his brief, I have filed briefs in cause numbers 14-14-
00204-CR and 14-14-00777-CR. In addition to the present case, I have 3 briefs
assigned to me, am recreating exhibits for an abatement hearing in cause
number 14-13-00767-CR, and am preparing for trial on May 4th, 2015 on the
State of Texas v. Sidney Darrell in cause number 1421932. Additionally, I assist
trial court prosecutors with legal questions on a daily basis. This motion is not
sought for delay, but so that justice may be done.

       WHEREFORE, the State prays that this Court will grant an extension of time

until March 9, 2015 in which to file the State’s brief in this case.

                                                        Respectfully submitted,
