                                           II.

    Research and writing in preparation for several cases for the trial division of
     the Harris County Public Defender’s Office.
                                          III.
Appellant’s attorney requests this extension which is necessary so that the brief can be
thoroughly written and timely filed. This motion is not made for the purpose of delay.
                                       PRAYER

WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, Appellant prays that this Honorable
Court grants this extension for an additional 30 days to January 2, 2015.
