          On Appeal from the 33rd Judicial District Court of Llano County,

       MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE APPELLANT'S BRIEF

TO THE HONORABLE THIRD COURT OF APPEALS:

       Appellant, Richard Lee Pollard, pursuant to Rule 10.5 of the Texas Rules of

Appellate Procedure, by and through his attorney of record, requests an extension
of time to file appellant's brief, and in support thereof would show the court the

following:

        1_The reporter's record was filed on September 17, 201. The clerk's record was

             filed on October 24, 2014.

       2_Under the court's briefing schedule, the appellant's brief is currently due on

             January 8, 2014.

       3_The undersigned attorney has an extensive trial practice, both civil and

             criminal. Further, the undersigned counsel has numerous and regular court

             appearances consisting of motions to revoke and suppression hearings.

             Likewise, the undersigned is preparing for several jury trials which are subject

             to being tried within the following forty (30) days.

       4_ In order to prepare a brief that will be of assistance to the Court, the

             undersigned seeks a 30-day extension of time to file its appellant's brief, so

             that the brief will be due on February 8, 2015.

       5_This is the second request for an extension of time to file Appellant's brief.

             This extension is not sought solely for delay, but is necessary so that justice

             can be done.

             For these reasons, Appellant respectfully requests that the Court grant this

             motion to extend the time for filing Appellant's brief and allow that brief to be

             filed on or before February 8, 2015. Appellant also requests any other relief to

             which it may be entitled.
