                        TO FILE APPELLANT’S BRIEF

TO THE HONORABLE JUDGES OF SAID COURT:

       COMES NOW LINDA HENDERSON-QUALLS, appellant, by and through her attorney

of record, KURT B. WENTZ, who files this Appellant’s Motion for Extension of Time to File

Appellant’s Brief and in support thereof would show this Court as follows:

                                                 I.

       The appellant was found guilty of aggravated theft from a nonprofit organization

($100,000 - $200,000) and sentenced to 10 years confinement in the Institutional Division of the

Texas Department of Criminal Justice.

                                                II.

       The appellant’s brief was originally due on March 13, 2015.

                                                III.

       The attorney for the appellant was unable to timely file the appellant's brief because of
                                              1
the demands of trial cases and other appellate matters. The appellant's brief has now been

completed and filed contemporaneously with this Motion for Extension of Time.

                                                   IV.

        This Motion is not intended for the purposes of delay but only to ensure the filing of the

appellant's brief which has now been completed and filed with this Court.

        WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, the appellant requests that the Court grant

this motion in all things to allow for the filing of her brief.

                                                Respectfully submitted,
