        MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE APPELLANT’S BRIEF

TO THE HONORABLE JUSTICES OF THE COURT OF APPEALS:

        COMES NOW TAHRONDA SHANELL WHITE, Appellant, by and through her

counsel, David Crook, and files this motion for an extension of 30 days in which to file the

Appellant’s Brief. In support of this motion, Appellant would show the Court the following:

                                              I.

        The Appellant was convicted in the County Court of Terry County, Texas, of the offense

of Theft of Property in Cause No. 29906, styled State of Texas v. Tahronda Shanell White. The

Appellant was assessed a punishment of confinement in County Jail for 6 months and a $2,000

fine.

                                              II.

        The deadline for filing the appellate brief is November 30, 2015. Counsel for Appellant

has not requested any extensions prior to this request.

                                              III.

        Appellant's request for an extension is based upon the following facts: Counsel has been

spending some time in Shreveport, Louisiana, as Counsel’s 88-year old mother requires some

attention to her affairs regarding her increasing hearing and vision problems.

                                              Prayer
                                                                                                      2

        WHEREFORE, appellant prays the Court grant this motion and extend the deadline for

filing the Appellant’s brief in Appellate No. 07-15-00348-CR to Wednesday, December 30,

2015.
