            MOTION TO EXTEND TIME TO FILE THE
              APPELLANT’S BRIEF, BY 15 DAYS
TO THE HONORABLE JUDGES OF THIS COURT:

      COMES NOW Michael Don Denton, Appellant in the above-entitled and

numbered cause, and moves the Court to extend time to file the brief by 15 days. In

support thereof, Appellant respectfully shows the Court the following:

                                        I.

      The brief is due on August 12, 2015. One prior extension has been sought

and granted.

                                        II.

      The reasons for this request are as follows. Counsel has had insufficient

time to prepare the brief. He took an annual vacation to England and France, and

returned on August 10, 2015. In the thirty days preceding this Motion, counsel has

filed the following brief:

      Finch v. State, 07-15-104-CR – opening brief filed 7/15/15
      WHEREFORE, the appellant prays the Court extend the time for filing the

brief to August 27, 2015.
