APPELLANT’S THIRD MOTION TO EXTEND TIME FOR FILING
               OF APPELLANT’S BRIEF

TO THE HONORABLE COURT OF APPEALS:

      COMES NOW THE APPELLANT, by and through his appointed

attorney of record, Paul M. Evans, in the above entitled and numbered

cause, and moves this Court, to grant the Appellant’s Third Motion to

Extend Time for Filing Appellant’s Brief, and, in support thereof, would

show the Court as follows:

                                I.

      Appellant’s Brief was due before this Court on September 21, 2015.

A second Motion to Extend Time was filed on August 24, 2015, and

granted the following day. Prior to that, a Motion to Extend Time was filed

on July 13, 2015, and granted the following day.

                               II.

      The undersigned counsel has tendered a completed Appellant’s Brief

to this Honorable Court on this same date and would respectfully request
that it be considered timely filed. Counsel encountered more difficulty than

he had anticipated in framing the issues at hand and committing them to

writing. Counsel avers that he has completed the Appellant’s Brief at the

earliest practicable opportunity.

                                III.

      This Motion is not made for purposes of delay, but so that justice

might be served.

WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, the Defendant respectfully

prays that this Court, upon good cause shown, grant the Appellant’s Third

Motion to Extend Time for Filing Appellant’s Brief.

                                           Respectfully submitted,
