the time to file the PDR to October 5, 2015, the date of its e-filing.

                                           I.

        The court of appeals’ ruling was issued on July 30, 2015, and the order

denying rehearing on September 1, 2015, making the PDR due October 1, 2015.

No prior extension motion has been filed.

                                          II.

        The reason for this request is as follows.         On September 29, 2015,

undersigned counsel has very recently finished and filed a very long and involved

opening brief in Martin v. State, 07-15-00079-CR, and until now has not had time

to prepare the PDR.
      WHEREFORE, the Petitioner prays the Court grant an extension of time to

file her PDR to October 5, 2015, the date the PDR is electronically filed.

                                              Respectfully submitted,
