                         TO FILE MOTION TO DISMISS APPEAL
From the 226th District Court of Bexar County, Texas
Trial Court No. 2013-CR-2894-W1
Hon. Kevin O’Connell, Judge Presiding

       In accordance with Tex. R. App. P. 10.5(b), the undersigned submits the following:

       Appellant’s signed motion to dismiss was due to be filed on Wednesday September 30,

2015. After receiving notification from this Court that Appellant did not need to have his motion

to dismiss notarized, counsel notified Appellant’s wife, who had been facilitating contact between

Appellant, who is in Mexico, and counsel. Since that time, counsel had been unable to contact

Appellant or his wife, through either telephone or email. However, Counsel was able to contact

Appellant’s wife this afternoon. She advised counsel that Appellant had mailed out the documents

two to three weeks ago. Counsel is still hopeful he will receive the documents soon.

       Counsel for Appellant respectfully requests, that he be granted an extension of fifteen (15)

days to try to secure the required documents from Appellant.

       WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, Appellant respectfully requests that this

Court grant the requested extension.
