      COMES NOW, Steven Roe, Appellant herein, by and through his attorney

      3.     In the past sixty days, the undersigned has filed a brief in the
Fourteenth Court of Appeals in Cause Number 14-15-00030-CR, Miguel Macias v.
The State of Texas. The undersigned also filed briefs in the Thirteenth Court of
Appeals in Cause Numbers 13-13-00547-CR, 13-13-00548-CR, and

practice.

       4.     The undersigned has filed one previous motion for extension of time
in this case.

      5.    For the reasons set forth above, Appellant respectfully requests that he
be granted an extension of sixty days so that his brief in this case will now be due
on October 6, 2015.

                                    PRAYER

           WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, Appellant respectfully

requests that this Court grant his Motion for Extension of Time.
