Appellee's Brief, and in support thereof would show the Court the following:
                                         I.
      Appellant was found guilty of Theft Over $20,000, a Third Degree

Appellant's brief was filed on April 22, 2015. Appellant’s amended brief was
filed on May 12, 2015. The State's brief is currently due on July 24, 2015.
                                         II.
      The State has requested one previous extension in this case.
                                        III.

Additionally, Counsel for the State has been involved in prosecution of cases
including contested hearings, pretrial hearings, grand jury presentation,
negotiations with opposing counsel, guilty pleas and other hearings in

time to August 24, 2015, in which to file State's Brief.
