LEONARD RAY BARKER                  X        STATE OF TEXAS

   APPELLANT’S AMENDED MOTION TO EXTEND TIME FOR
             FILING OF APPELLANT’S BRIEF

TO THE HONORABLE COURT OF APPEALS:

      COMES NOW THE APPELLANT, by and through his appointed

attorney of record, Paul M. Evans, in the above entitled and numbered

cause, and moves this Court, to grant the Appellant’s Motion to Extend

Time for Filing Appellant’s Brief, and, in support thereof, would show the

Court as follows:

                               I.

      Appellant’s Brief was due before this Court on June 18, 2015. No

previous Motions to Extend Time have been sought.

                              II.

      The undersigned counsel needs additional time to examine the record

and complete the research necessary to complete the Appellant’s Brief.

Counsel reasonably anticipates that he will need only three weeks from the
date of the filing of the instant motion to complete all requisite tasks while

not causing undue slight to other pending clients, and would hereby

respectfully request the deadline be extended to August 5, 2015.

                                III.

      This Motion is not made for purposes of delay, but so that justice

might be served.

WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, the Defendant respectfully

prays that this Court, upon good cause shown, grant the Appellant’s Motion

to Extend Time for Filing Appellant’s Brief.

                                           Respectfully submitted,
