   TO THE HONORABLE COURT OF APPEALS:

         APPELLANT, pursuant to TEX. R. APP. P. 68.2(c) moves for an

   extension of time within which to file its petition for discretionary review. In

   support of its motion, appellant submits the following:
      1.    Appellant was charged with the misdemeanor offense of driving
            while intoxicated.
      2.    A jury convicted appellant of the charged offense and the court
            sentenced her to five days confinement in the Harris County Jail
            on May 22, 2014.
      3.    A unanimous panel of the First Court of Appeals rendered
            judgment in an unpublished opinion on September 29, 2015,
            affirming appellant’s conviction and sentence.
      5.    Appellant’s petition for discretionary review was due October 30,
            2015.
      6.    Appellant seeks an extension, in accordance with TEX. R. APP.
            P. 68.2(c), until November 30, 2015, to file its petition for
            discretionary review. This is appellant’s first request for an
            extension.
      7.    Appellant’s petition is not for purposes of delay, but so that justice
            may be done.

      WHEREFORE, the Appellant prays that this Court will grant the

requested extension until November 30, 2015.

                                 Respectfully submitted,
