         APPELLANT’S MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME
                       TO FILE REPLY BRIEF
____________________________________________________________________

    TO THE HONORABLE JUSTICES OF THE FOURTEENTH
DISTRICT COURT OF APPEALS:

      Appellant, JORDAN NICHOLS, by and through his Counsel of Record,

CARMEN ROE, files this Appellant’s Motion for Extension of Time to File Reply

Brief and in support shows this Court the following:
                                                 I.

        Appellant was convicted in County Court at Law No. 3 of Brazoria County,

Texas, in Cause No. 194143, for the offense of possession of drug paraphernalia.

Punishment was assessed at a five hundred dollar ($500.00) fine. A writ of habeas

corpus was filed and subsequently denied by the Court on February 27, 2015.

                                                 II.

        Appellant’s Brief was filed September 18, 2015 and the State’s Brief was filed

November 7, 2015. Appellant’s Reply Brief is currently due on December 7, 2105.

                                                III.

        Appellant requests an extension of thirty (30) days until January 6, 2016 to file its

brief. Counsel requests the additional time to file its brief because the following briefs

are due in the next thirty (30) days: State v. Mashood Uddin, State v. Andreas

Marcopoulos, State v. Derek Johnson, and State v. Fernando Razo. For these reasons,

Counsel has been unable to submit Appellant’s Reply Brief on the due date and hereby

requests an extension of time.

        WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, Appellant prays that this Honorable

Court extend the time for filing Appellant’s Reply Brief in this cause until January 6,

2016.
                                       RESPECTFULLY SUBMITTED,
