TO THE HONORABLE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS OF TEXAS:

      INTO COURT COMES, ERIC LYNN BAUMGART, the appellant, who

files this motion, through the attorney designated herein, and in support of said

motion would respectfully show the court as follows:

      On May 23, 2016 the prosecution-appellee filed its merit brief in this case

and it raised arguments that warrant a reply. The appellant’s reply, filed

contemporaneously with this motion, addresses important issues created in the

appellee’s merit brief.

      Wherefore, premises considered, the appellant requests the court to grant

this motion and to allow the appellant to file his reply.

                                        Respectfully submitted by:

                                        Michael D. Gillespie
