                MOTION FOR REHEARING

 TO THE HONORABLE JUDGES OF SAID COURT:

                                       I.

       COMES NOW, Appellant in the above styled case, and makes and

 files this his request for an extension of time to file his Motion for

 Cause Number Below:                            10-12-00281-CR

                                        1
Date Petition for Discretionary
Review Refused:                            1-14-15

Present Deadline for Filing Appellant’s
Motion for Rehearing:                      2-20-15

Days requested for this extension:         6 days

Date to which extension is requested:      February 26, 2015

Number of extensions
previously granted:                        1

                                     I.
     The Appellee’s request is based upon the following reasonable
explanation of the need for additional time, within the personal
knowledge of Charles W. McDonald, the attorney signing this motion,
T.R.A.P. 10.5(b), namely:
                                     II.
     Due to a clerical error, the wrong document was attached and filed
on 2-20-15. The error was not discovered until 2-23-15. Counsel
requested to refile the document. Hard copies of the correct document
were received by the Court on 2-23-15. The correct document was
refiled without a motion to extend time. Counsel requests an extension
of time to file Petitioner’s Amended Motion for Rehearing through
today, 2-26-15.
                                  III.
     WHEREFORE, this Attorney for the Appellant prays that the
Court grant this motion and extend the time and deadline for the filing

                                     2
of Appellant’s Motion for Rehearing, or the Court grant such additional
time as is just and proper.
                                 Respectfully submitted,

                                 /s/ Charles W. McDonald
