                                   _________
                              Cause number 1421465
                        In the 338th Judicial District Court
                             Of Harris County, Texas
                                   _________

   Appellant’s Motion for Extension of Time Within
          Which to file the Appellant’s Brief
                                  __________

TO THE HONORABLE FIRST COURT OF APPEALS:

      DeSergio Geterus Parrish, the appellant, under TEX. R. APP. P. 10.1 &

10.5(b), moves for an extension of time within which to file his appellate brief. In

support of his motion, the appellant submits the following:

      (A)   The appellant’s brief is due on February 23, 2015.
      (B)   The appellant seeks an extension of time to file the appellant’s brief
            until, March 27, 2015.
      (C)   The appellant relies upon the following facts to reasonably explain the
            need for an extension:
                  Due to the undersigned’s work load, more time is necessary to
                  review the appellant record and prepare an appellate brief; a
                  jury convicted the appellant of having an improper relationship
                  with a student and the record will take some time to completely
                  review.

      (D) No previous motion requesting an extension of time to file the
          appellant’s brief has been requested and granted.

      WHEREFORE, the appellant prays that this Court will grant the requested

extension until March 27, 2015.

                                            Respectfully submitted,
