                                         Respondent.

                          On Appeal from the
         105th Judicial District Court of Nueces County, Texas

             UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME
                   TO FILE BRIEF ON THE MERITS

TO THE HONORABLE TEXAS SUPREME COURT:

     Petitioner, The State of Texas, moves to extend the time to file its

brief on the merits, pursuant to Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure

10.5(b) and 53.7(f).

     The brief on the merits is currently due on March 2, 2015.

Petitioner seeks a 30-day extension, creating a new deadline of April 1,

2015. Petitioner requests this extension because of the press of other
professional commitments. This is Petitioner’s first extension request,

and no party opposes the extension.

     Accordingly, Petitioner respectfully requests that the Court grant

an extension of time for filing its brief on the merits to April 1, 2015.

                                  Respectfully submitted.
