           APPELLANT’S MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME

           TO FILE PETITION FOR DISCRETIONARY REVIEW
TO THE HONORABLE JUSTICES OF THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS:

      Comes now Rebecca Victoria Humaran, Appellant, and files this motion for an
extension of 60 days in which to file Appellant’s Petition For Discretionary Review. In
support of this motion, Appellant shows the court the following:

                                          1.
        On October 15, 2015, the Fourteenth Court of Appeals affirmed Appellant’s
convictions for Murder in an opinion.
                                          2.
        The deadline for filing the Appellant’s Petition For Discretionary Review is
November 14, 2015. A period of 15 days from that date has not elapsed before the
filing date of this motion. The Appellant has not requested an extension prior to this
request.
                                          3.
        Appellant requests an extension of time to file Appellant’s Brief because
Appellant’s counsel had to prepare for a jury trial to the court in the felony Evading
Arrest case of State vs. Gozie Connor in the 300th District Court of Brazoria County,
Texas in Cause No. 74479 set on November 9, 2015. In addition, counsel is also
preparing Appellant’s Brief in the cases of Timms v. State, Case No. 01-15-00864-
CR.

         Wherefore, Appellant prays the court grant this motion and extend the deadline
for filing Appellant’s Petition For Discretionary Review to December 31, 2015.

                                                Respectfully submitted,
