Appellee

            APPELLANT’S MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME

23, 2015.
                                      II.
      Appellant’s seeks a 45 day extension of time for filing appellant’s

      The facts relied upon to reasonably explain the need for an extension

                additional volume of exhibits. The Clerk’s Record
                consists of 194 pages.

             2. Attorney for Appellant is a solo practicioner with a
                civil and criminal practice practicing in Williamson
                and surrounding counties in both state and federal
                courts. Since receiving the reporter’s record, attorney
                has had court appearances in Williamson and Bastrop
                counties.

             3. Attorney for Appellant also serves as Of Counsel to
                the Law Firm of Charles Lance in addition to her own
                practice, assisting Mr. Lance when the need or
                opportunity arises.

      WHEREFORE, appellant prays that this Motion for Extension of
Time for Filing Appellant’s Brief be granted and that the deadline for filing
appellant’s brief be extended to January 7, 2016.
                                      Respectfully submitted,
