appellate record with evidence Appellant states was not in the trial court’s record. The motion
includes approximately thirty-seven exhibits offered by Appellant.
        Appellant’s motion to supplement the appellate record with evidence not before the trial
court is DENIED. See Richards v. Comm’n for Lawyer Discipline, 35 S.W.3d 243, 251 (Tex.
App.—Houston [14th Dist.] 2000, no pet.) (“Rule 34.5(c), Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure,
authorizes appellate courts to supplement the record; however, it does not allow the creation of a
new trial court record.”).
       Appellant’s brief was due on May 14, 2014. In Appellant’s May 16, 2014 motion, he
also moved this court to grant a thirty-day extension of time to file the brief. See TEX. R. APP. P.
10.5(b). Appellant’s motion is GRANTED. See id. Appellant’s brief is due on June 13, 2014.
