TO THE HONORABLE JUSTICES OF SAID COURT:

         Now comes CRYSTAL BINGHAM HERNANDEZ, Appellant in the above styled and

numbered cause, and moves this Court to grant an extension of time to file appellant's brief,

pursuant to Rule 38.6 of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure, and for good cause shows the

following:

         1.    This case is on appeal from the County Court at Law No. 2 of Tom Green County,

Texas.

         2.    The case below was styled Crystal Bingham Hernandez v. Tiffany Polley, and

numbered 1 2C482-L2.

         3.    Notice of Appeal was filed with this Court on June 24,2015.

         4.    The Clerk's Record was filed with this Court on July 13, 2015. The Reporter's

Record was filed with this Court on July 22, 2015.

         5.    Appellant's brief is presently due on August 21, 2015.

         6.    Appellant requests a 30-day extension from the present deadline of August 21,

2015 to September 20, 2015.

         7.    No extension to file the brief has been requested or received in this cause.

         8.    Appellant's counsel relies on the following facts as good cause for the requested

on appeal.

pending in various county and district courts. Counsel for Appellant has been required to

participate in numerous contested cases following the filing of this appeal. Counsel for Appellant

is currently preparing for jury trial in a civil case in Val Verde County, Texas which is set for trial

on August 24, 2015.

Motion to Extend Time to File Appellant's Brief, and for such other and further relief as the Court

may deem appropriate.
