                     MOTION TO EXTEND TIME
           TO FILE PETITION FOR DISCRETIONARY REVIEW

TO    THE HONORABLE JUSTICES OF THE COURT OF CRIMINAL
      APPEALS:

      COMES NOW, RYAN EDWARD SCHULLER, Petitioner in the above

entitled and numbered cause, and submits this his motion for an extension of 30 days

until Monday, October 5, 2015, to file his Petition for Discretionary Review pursuant

to Rule 68.2 and Rule 10.5(b) of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure. In support

of this motion, Petitioner shows the court the following:

                                           I.

      On December 31, 2014, the trial Court granted Petitioner’s Application for a

Writ of Habeas Corpus, in the 291ST Judicial District Court of Dallas County, Texas,

the Honorable Jennifer Balido presiding, cause No. WX13-90021-U.

                                           II.

      The State of Texas timely filed its Notice of Appeal and the Fifth Court of

Appeals at Dallas reversed the Granting of the Writ by Memorandum Opinion and

Judgment on June 15, 2015, in Appeal Number 05-15-00064-CR.
                                          III.

      After an extension of time to file a Motion for Rehearing a timely Motion for

Rehearing was filed on July 21, 2015, which was denied by the Dallas Court of

Appeals on August 5, 2015.

                                          IV.

      Petitioner's deadline to file his Petition for Discretionary Review is September

4, 2015.

                                          V.

      This is Petitioner’s first Motion to Extend Time to File Petition for

Discretionary Review.

                                          VI.

      Due to a heavy court schedule and travel, counsel has been unable to complete

said Petition for Discretionary Review and needs additional time to prepare

Appellant's petition. Counsel is a solo practitioner and has been traveling to and from

surrounding counties, and to Harris County extensively in the last thirty days for court

appearances and meditations and has been away from his office for an extended

period during the last thirty days. Counsel's office is in Dallas, Texas.

                                         VII.

      Counsel has traveled to Harris County, Texas and other Counties besides

Dallas County extensively during the last thirty days on the following matters:

      Cause No. 2013-26783, Nicolas Raby and Pamela Raby vs. Carnegie Homes
& Construction, LLC, in the 125th Judicial District Court of Harris County, Texas;

      Cause No. 2014-04952, Funda Sahin vs. Carnegie Homes & Construction,

LLC., and Ram A. Gupta, in the 133rd Judicial District Court of Harris County, Texas;

      Cause No. 2015-03817, Carnegie Homes & Construction, LLC vs. Silvana

Nieto and Japhed Gerardo Rodriguez, d/b/a Popular Plumbing, in the 157th Judicial

District Court of Harris County, Texas.

      Cause No. 2015-07848, Developer Design Group, LLC a/k/a DSG Realty vs.

Carnegie Homes & Construction, LLC, in the 190th Judicial District Court of Harris

County, Texas.

      Mediation on claims of Steven & Ladonna Barras and Carnegie Homes &

Construction, LLC

      Cause No. 81240, Matthew Sidley vs. Maria De Los Angeles Clark, in the 196th

Judicial District Court of Hunt County, Texas.

                                        VIII.

      This motion is not made for purposes of delay, but rather that the end of justice

may be served.

      WHEREFORE, Petitioner prays the Court grant this motion and extend by 30

days the deadline for filing his Petition for Discretionary Review.
                                       Respectfully submitted,
