                      APPELLANT'S FIRST MOTION
                 FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE BRIEF
TO THE HONORABLE THIRD COURT OF APPEALS:
       COMES NOW, ELIZABETH BLACK, Appellant, and files this motion for
an extension of thirty (30) days in which to file Appellant's Brief. This request is
made pursuant to and in compliance with Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure 10.1
and 10.5(b)(l). In support ofthis motion, Appellant shows the court the following:
                                           I.
      Appellant appealed a pre-trial suppressiOn order in a Driving While
Intoxicated case from the Travis County Court at Law Number Five, Cause
Number C1CR-13-217530 which was denied on January 13, 2015. Appeal was
perfected by Appellant on January 26, 2015. Pursuant to Texas Rule of Appellate
Procedure 38.6(a) Appellant's brief is due April10, 2015.
                                          II.
      Counsel for Appellant has a very large docket and trial schedule which has
prevented him from being able to complete a brief. Thus, Appellant requests an
extension of thirty (30) days in which to file her brief.
                                          III.
      This is Appellant's first request for extension of time. Appellant has not
requested any previous requests for extension of time.
        WHEREFORE, Appellant prays the court grant this motion and extend the
deadline for filing Appellant's Brief thirty (30) days.
