time away from the office, which would otherwise have been dedicated to

preparing Appellant’s argument.

Appellant, which would make the brief due December 21, 2017.

5.      This is the third motion for extension filed by Appellant. This Motion is not

filed for the purposes of delay only, but that justice may be served.

6.      As shown in the certificate of conference, the undersigned has conferred

with counsel for the State. The State does not oppose this motion.
