        APPELLEE’S MOTION TO EXTEND THE TIME FOR FILING THE
           APPELLEE’S PETITION FOR DISCRETIONARY REVIEW

  TO THE HONORABLE JUDGES OF THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS:
         COMES NOW the Appellee, Jarquis D. Jackson, and respectfully requests
  that the time for the filing of the Appellant’s Petition For Discretionary Review in
  the above-styled and -numbered cause be extended. In support of this motion the
  Appellee would show the Court the following:
                                           I.
         Appellee was charged with the misdemeanor offenses of unlawfully
  carrying a weapon and possession of marijuana. The trial court granted Appellee’s
  motion to suppress and the State appealed. On January 21, 2015, in Opinion Nos.
  05-14-00278-CR & 05-14-00279-CR, the Court of Appeals reversed the trial
  court’s order granting the motion to suppress.
                                          II.
         The Appellee’s Petition For Discretionary Review is due on or before
  February 20, 2015. Appellee respectfully requests an extension of time until
  March 23, 2015.
                                         III.
      No previous extension of time has been requested.

                                         IV.
      The Appellant would show the Court that a reasonable explanation exists
for the requested extension. The facts on which the Appellee relies to reasonably
explain the need for this extension are as follows:
      Before the undersigned attorney can begin work on the Petition in this case,
the undersigned attorney must prepare and file the briefs in Silva, No. 05-14-
00428-CR;     Jackson,   No.   05-14-00297-CR;        Rico,   No. 05-14-00251-CR;
Mikroberts, No. 05-14-00994-CR; Jones, Nos. 05-14-01485-CR & 05-14-01486-
CR; Hunter, No. 05-14-01146-CR; and Leatch, No. 05-14-01496-CR, all of which
have already been granted extensions.
      WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, the Appellant respectfully
requests that the time for the filing of the Appellee’s Petition For Discretionary
Review be extended until March 23, 2015.

                                        Respectfully submitted,
