                                ATTORNEY FOR APPELLANT
TO THE HONORABLE JUSTICES OF SAID COURT:

COMES NOW the Defendant/Appellant by and through his below named Attorney and for his

Motion for Belated Filing of Appellant’s Brief states as

follows:

I.

1. This case is pending from the 202nd Judicial District of Bowie County, Texas.

2. The case is styled State of Texas v. Cornell McHenry, Cause No. 13F00017-202.

3. Appellant was found guilty to the offense of Possession of a Controlled

Substance and sentenced to twenty-five (25) years, in the Institutional Division of the

Texas Department of Criminal Justice.

4. Appellant’s Brief was due on December 2, 2014

5. Appellant has now completed his brief and requests leave of this Court for the belated filing of

the same. Appellant’s completed brief is filed simultaneously with this Motion.

6. The Brief was not timely prepared in this matter due to the press of the business, both trial and
appellate. Additionally there were issues unique and of a first nature to Counsel for Appellant
which increased the time necessary for research and added to the complexity of the Brief.
Furthermore, Counsel attended continuing education a part of which assisted in preparing the
Brief.

                                              Respectfully Submitted,

                                              Bart C. Craytor
