     MOTION TO EXTEND TIME TO FILE APPELLANT’S BRIEF

TO THE HONORABLE JUSTICES OF SAID COURT:

      NOW COMES VINCENT ALONZO CORSON, Appellant in the

above styled and numbered cause, by and through Counsel, and moves this

Court to grant an extension of time to file appellant’s brief, pursuant to Rule

38.6(d) of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure, and for good cause

shows the following:

      1.     This case is on appeal from the 426 th District Court in Bell

County, Texas.

      2.     The case below is styled The State of Texas v. Vincent Alonzo

Corson, and numbered 72,778.

      3.     Appellant was convicted of aggravated assault.



                                      1
      4.         Appellant was assessed a sentence of 40 years’ imprisonment

in the Institutional Division-Texas Department of Criminal Justice on

December 17, 2014.

      5.     Notice of appeal was given on December 30, 2014.

      6.    The Clerk’s and Reporter’s records were filed on February 13,

2015 and January 27, 2015, respectively.

      7. The Appellant’s brief was due on March 16, 2015.

      8. Appellant requests an extension of time to file Appellant’s brief of

thirty (30) days from the present date or until April 16, 2015.

      9. No previous requests for extension to file the brief have been filed

in this cause.

      10. Defendant is currently incarcerated.

      Appellant relies on the following facts as good cause for the requested

extension: The undersigned has had numerous appellate deadlines in the

Courts of Appeal for the Eleventh and Third Districts and the Court of

Criminal Appeals in the past forty five days, all of which preceded the filing

deadline herein including: filing an Appellant’s Petition for Discretionary

Review in State v. Thornburgh, No. 11-12-00328-CR filed March 2, 2015;

and filing appellant’s briefs in State v. George, No. 03-14-00673-CR filed




                                       2
March 11, 2015; and State v. Vidaurri, No. 11-14-00291-CR filed January

20, 1015.

      The undersigned, therefore, would request an additional thirty (30)

days to review the record and to perform the necessary legal research for

preparation of the brief herein.

      WHEREFORE, Appellant prays that this Court grant this Motion to

Extend Time to File Appellant’s Brief, and for such other and further relief

as the Court may deem appropriate.

                                      Respectfully submitted,
