THE STATE OF TEXAS


                 APPELLANT’S THIRD MOTION FOR
                EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE BRIEF

TO THE HONORABLE THIRD COURT OF APPEALS:

Extension of Time to Brief and in support thereof, would show the Court the

                                     I.

      That the above-styled and numbered cause is styled The State of

Texas v. Levardo Cantos, Cause Number 13-2081-K277 in the 277th

Judicial District Court of Travis County, Texas. Appellant was sentenced on

August 11, 2014.

                                     II.

      Appellant was convicted of the offense of aggravated assault with

serious bodily injury and punishment was assessed at fifteen (15) years.
                                     III.

      Appellant’s motion for new trial was filed on September 10, 2014.

brief is Tuesday, May 26, 2015.

                                     IV.

      This is Appellant’s third motion for extension of time to file his brief.

      The undersigned attorney has begun work on this case but has been

unable to complete the brief due to necessary work needed to be completed

on several other appeal cases and due to her busy schedule in both the

district and county courts of Travis, Williamson and Hays Counties. Today

she completed and filed briefs in the cases of Troy Luther Williams v. State

of Texas, Cause Nos. 03-14-00228-CR and 03-14-00229-CR. In addition

she is in the process of preparing petitions for discretionary review in the

cases of Rodolfo Cisneros v. State of Texas, Cause Nos. 03-13-00206-CR,

03-13-00207-CR, 03-13-00208-CR, 03-13-00209-CR, all of which are due
next week.    She asks that this extension be granted so that she may

effectively represent Appellant and so that justice may be done in this case.
