                           APPELLANT’S MOTION FOR
                       EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE A BRIEF

TO THE HONORABLE COURT OF APPEALS:

       COMES NOW, the Appellant, by and through his attorney Dean Watts, and who

tenders this motion for an extension of time to file the Appellant’s brief, pursuant to Texas

Rules of Appellate Procedure 10.5(b) and 38.6(d). In support of this motion, the Appellant

would show the following:

                                               I.

       The Appellant’s brief was due to be filed on September 9, 2015.

                                              II.

       The Appellant’s brief was filed on August 13, 2015, but was rejected because it was

a pdf file and not a pdf readable file.

                                              III.

       The extension of time to file is not requested for the purpose of an improper delay

but so that the Appellant may adequately address the proper appellate issues.
       WHEREFORE, premises considered, the State respectfully requests that the Court

grant the instant motion and extend the time for filing the Appellant’s brief for 30 days.

                                                    Respectfully submitted,

                                                    /s/ Dean Watts
