TO THE HONORABLE FIRST COURT OF APPEALS:

       NOW COMES the State of Texas, Appellee in the above entitled and numbered

cause and files this Motion for Extension of Time to File Appellee's Brief, and in support

thereof would show the Court the following:

                                                I.

       Appellant was found guilty of Driving While Intoxicated, 3rd or more, a Third

Degree felony enhanced to a Second Degree felony, and the Judge assessed

punishment at 14 years confinement in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice on

March 17, 2015. Appellant filed a Notice of Appeal on April 14, 2015. Appellant's brief

was filed on September 14, 2015. The State's brief is currently due on October 14, 2015.

                                                II.

       The State has not requested an extension in this case prior to this request.

                                                III.

       The State requests this extension of time due to the following: Counsel for the

State has been involved in prosecution of cases including preparation for contested

hearings, pretrial hearings, grand jury case review, negotiations with opposing counsel,

guilty pleas and other hearings in additional pending felony cases. Additionally, Counsel

for the State was out of the office while attending the Texas District and County Attorney’s

Association’s Annual Criminal & Civil Law Update from September 22nd to September
25th, 2015.

to November 13, 2015, in which to file State's Brief.
