                SECOND MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME

                         TO FILE APPELLANT’S BRIEF

TO THE HONORABLE JUSTICES OF THE COURT OF APPEALS:

      Comes Now, Appellant, Perry Lee Penning, and files this Motion for

Extension of Time to File Appellant’s Brief, pursuant to T.R.A.P. Rule 38.6(d),

and would show:

                                           I.

      Appellant’s brief was due on January 2, 2015. Appellant requests an

extension of twenty-eight (28) days to file his brief. One previous extension of

time has been granted.

                                           II.

      The facts relied on to reasonably explain the need for this extension are:

      1. Unexpected absence of support staff;

      2. Personal illness;

                                           1
       3. Reduction of hours at U.T. Law Library where the undersigned conducts

           much of her legal research on nights and weekends; and

       4. This extension is necessary in order to provide effective assistance of

           counsel to Appellant.

       WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, Appellant prays that this Court

grant an extension of twenty-eight (28) days, until January 30, 2015, in which to

file his brief.

                                       Respectfully submitted,
