     TO FILE A PETITION FOR DISCRETIONARY REVIEW

TO THE HONORABLE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS:

       THE STATE OF TEXAS, pursuant to TEX. R. APP. P. 10.1, 10.5(b) and 68.2(c),

moves for an extension of time within which to file its reply to appellant’s brief on the

merits. In support of its motion, the State submits the following:

         July 17, 2015
 1. Appellant was convicted of the offense of sexual assault of a child and
    sentenced to seven-years confinement. He also was convicted of the offense
    of compelling prostitution and sentenced to twenty-years confinement. The
    judge ordered the sentences to be served consecutively.

 2. On June 16, 2015, the Fourteenth Court of Appeals affirmed the two
    convictions, but ordered the deletion of the cumulation order.

 3. The State’s petition for discretionary review (PDR) is due on July 16, 2015.

 4. The State seeks a 15-day extension until July 31, 2015, to file its PDR.

 5. This is the State’s first request for an extension.

 6. The following facts are relied upon to show good cause for the requested
    extension:

My completion of this PDR has been delayed by my
completion of three other appellate briefs this past month. I
also have five other appellate briefs due in the next two weeks.

                                      2
      WHEREFORE, the State prays that this Court will grant the requested extension.

                                                Respectfully submitted,

                                                /s/ Dan McCrory
