  MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE APPELLANT'S BRIEF

 TO THE HONORABLE JUDGES OF SAID COURT:

        COMES NOW, CARLOS FAZ, Appellant, and files this Motion for

 Extension of Time to File Appellant's Brief, pursuant to Rules 10.5(b) and

 38.6(d), Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure.              In support of this Motion,

 Appellant would show the following:

                                            I.

      Appellant’s brief is due to be filed on November 2, 2015. Counsel for

Appellant requires an extension of time to complete and file Appellant’s brief in

this cause. This is Appellant’s fourth request for extension of time, but second

extension of time since the appellate record was filed in its entirety.

                                            II.

        Counsel for Appellant has worked diligently on the brief since receiving

 the record, but has been unable to complete it for the following reasons:

        1.   Counsel for Appellant appeared for numerous, previously set,

 pretrial and trial settings in the county and district criminal courts of Bexar
       County, Texas.

             2.     Counsel for Appellant was also involved in assisting with the

       research and preparation of several appellate and post-conviction matters

       pending in Harris County, Texas.

                                                  III.

            This request is not made for the purpose of delay, but rather this request is

made to allow counsel adequate time to finish Appellant’s brief. Appellant moves

this Court for an order granting an extension of seven (7) days, or until

November 9, 2015, for Appellant to submit the brief in this case.

              WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, Appellant moves this Court

       for an order granting an extension of seven (7) days for Appellant to submit

       the brief in this case.

                                                   Respectfully submitted,
