                 APPELLEES’S MOTION TO EXTEND TIME TO FILE
                   HIS PETITION FOR DISCRETIONARY REVIEW

     TO THE JUDGES OF THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS:

            CHRISTOPHER SHAWN FELLOWS, STEVE MARSTON, and

     PAUL CARTER, Appellees, by Counsel, BRIAN WICE, file this Motion to

     Extend Time to File Petitions for Discretionary Review.
                                        1
                                      I.

      Appellees were indicted for criminal conspiracy and money

laundering relating to the operation of an alleged illegal gambling

establishment. The trial court granted Appellees’s motion to dismiss the

indictments after finding that their due process rights were violated when

material and exculpatory evidence, POS1, had been destroyed by the

State. On appeal, the court of appeals held that the evidence was neither

material nor exculpatory, reversed the trial court’s order, and remanded

the cases to the trial court. State v. Fellows,
                                       Fellows 2015 WL 3799457 at *10

(Tex.App.– Corpus Christi June 18, 2015)( not designated for publication).

On July 23, 2015, the court of appeals denied Appellees’s motion for

rehearing, but granted their motion to publish. Id. ___ S.W.3d ___, 2015

WL 4504936 (Tex.App.– Corpus Christi July 23, 2015). This petition is

due on August 24, 2015, and this is the first extension sought.

                                     II.

      As a result of his involvement in these matters over the last 45 days,

lead counsel is unable to timely file these petition for discretionary review:

              State of Texas v. Warren Kenneth Paxton, Jr.
