             MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE MOTION
                                    FOR REHEARING

       TO THE HONORABLE JUDGES OF SAID COURT:

                                             I.

              COMES NOW, Appellant in the above styled case, and makes and

       files this his request for an extension of time to file his Motion for

        Rehearing and would show unto the Court the following:

        Court Below:                                    Tenth Court of Appeals

        Cause Number Below:                             10-12-00281-CR
Date Petition for Discretionary
Review Refused:                              1-14-15

Present Deadline for Filing Appellant's
Motion for Rehearing:                        2-17-2015

Days requested for this extension:           2 days

Date to which extension is requested:        2-19-15

Number of extensions
previously granted:                          2

                                      I.

     The Appellee's request is based upon the following reasonable
explanation of the need for additional time, within the personal
knowledge of Charles W. McDonald, the attorney signing this motion,
T.R.A.P. 10.5(b), namely:
                                      II.

     Counsel was unexpectedly subpoenaed today to testify in a case in
McLennan County. Additionally, continued extensive interior and
exterior repair following severe water damage to counsel's office has
delayed my ability to get work out. It rained before the roof was
completely finished, causing further damage. Counsel respectfully
requests an additional day to file Appellant's Motion for Rehearing.
The motion is partially completed. By previous agreement, this motion
is unopposed by opposing counsel.
                                     III.

      WHEREFORE, this Attorney for the Appellant prays that the
Court grant this motion and extend the time and deadline for the filing
of Appellant's Motion for Rehearing, or the Court grant such additional
time as is just and proper.

                                   Respectfully submitted,

                                   /s/ Charles W. McDonald
