  MOTION FOR EXTENSIONOF TIME TO FILE APPELLANT'S BRIEF

 TO THE HONORABLE JUDGES OF SAID COURT:

        COMES NOW, CARLOS FAZ, Appellant, and files this Motion for

 Extension of Time to File Appellant's Brief, pursuant to Rules 10.5(b) and

 38.6(d), Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure.           In support of this Motion,

 Appellant would show the following:

                                          I.

      Appellant’s brief is due to be filed on August 10, 2015. Counsel for

Appellant requires an extension of time complete and file Appellant’s brief in this

cause in order to get the complete appellate record in this case. This is Appellant’s

first request for extension of time.

                                          II.

      On June 22, 2015, this Court entered an order directing Appellant to make

arrangements to pay for the Reporter’s Record. Appellant filed a response July 3,

2015, certifying arrangements had been made. On July 6, 2015, Court Reporter Amy

Guillen filed the Reporter’s Record consisting of one volume. On July 10, 2015,
Court Reporter Lisa Ramos filed the Reporter’s Record consisting of three volumes.

However, a portion of the Reporter’s Record transcribed by Sachiko Nagao has yet to

be filed.

                                          III.

       The part of the Reporter’s Record yet to be filed represents a critical portion of

the appellate record and is necessary for Appellant to prepare the brief.

                                          IV.

        This request is not made for the purpose of delay, but rather this request

 is made to allow counsel adequate time to obtain the entire appellate record and

 properly prepare the brief in this case. Appellant moves this Court for an order

 granting an extension for Appellant to submit the brief in this case.

        WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, Appellant moves this Court

 for an order granting an extension for Appellant to submit the brief in this case.

                                                 Respectfully submitted,

                                                 /s/ Daniel De La Garza
